You can add or deduct commission volume from an Associate’s account using the Volume Adjustments tool found in Corporate Admin. This tool is only for uncommitted commission periods. After a period is committed, you must do a commission payable adjustment.
Enabling/Disabling Volume Adjustments
Admin: Corporate Admin
Page: Settings > Advanced Settings > Commission
URL: [CLIENTID].corpadmin.directscale.com/Settings?category=Commission
Permission: ViewAdministration(), ViewAdvancedSettings()
If the Volume Adjustments tool is missing from the Admin, you may need to enable it. Likewise, if you have no use for this tool, you can disable it. To accomplish either:
-
Locate the Volume Adjustments section.
-
Select/deselect the Allow Volume Adjustments checkbox.
-
Click the Save Changes button.
