Navigating to the Compensation Page

From the main navigation menu, click Business Management

and select Compensation. There are three tabs available:

• Compensation - displays a list of all compensation records. Use this view to search compensation records, filter by status, product, or compensation type.
• Agent Compensation - displays compensation broken down by agent payout. Use this page to analyze agent earnings, split compensation, and compensation payment status.
• Projected Compensation - displays estimated compensation for the year broken down by month. For more information, please visit our Projected Compensation article

Tip

Agent Compensation Page

The Agent Compensation is similar to the Compensation view but shows calculated net compensation payout for each agent and allows you to manage the payment status

Calculating Compensation

The Net Compensation shows the per-period amount, not the annual amount. The rate is treated as an annual rate and divided by the number of periods per year:

• Monthly = annual rate / 12
• Quarterly = annual rate / 4
• Yearly = annual rate / 1

For example, a $10,000 compensable amount with a 10% annual rate on a monthly commission shows a Net Compensation of $83.33.

Agent Compensation: Update Payment Status

1. From the main navigation menu, select Business Management and > click Compensation

2. Select Agent Compensation and > click the corresponding Payment Status Badge and select the desired payment status from the drop-down.

   *Please note: Each status corresponds to a unique metric tile to display a running total.

   1. Canceled
   2. Disputed
   3. Pending
   4. Unpaid
   5. Paid
   6. Total

3. Repeat as needed.

Tip
