View the distributor’s commissions and the representative associated with them on the Additional info panel.
Default sales commission, %
This is the percentage that a distributor receives from each sale. A sales commission is applied when a distributor creates/activates a debit account or when you assign a distributor to an existing active debit account.
PortaBilling calculates the sales commission amount from the account’s opening balance.
If the account’s opening balance is $10 and the sales commission is 15%, the sales commission amount is $1.50.
Dafault payment commission, %
This is the percentage that a distributor receives when he collects cash from customers and enters it as a payment in PortaBilling. PortaBilling calculates the amount of payment commission from the payment amount.
If a distributor receives a $10 cash payment and the payment commission is 10%, the amount of payment commission is $1. The distributor delivers $9 to you: the amount of payment minus commission.
Representative
A representative is a person who brings a distributor into your sales chain. Representatives work on behalf of the company, selling services for a commission. After you identify a representative for a distributor, they start to receive a commission according to the commission plan you defined for them.
Representatives don’t participate in billing or revenue sharing. They are listed for information purposes only.
