Before you start
How it works
Commission lines are generated automatically from your plans and surface through the commission dashboard and partner payout panels. Each line has a workflow status that the dashboard labels as potential, expected, approved, or declined, and a separate payment status once it is on a payout. You review lines in the dashboard’s metric views and on each partner’s payout panel, where you can act on them. Line actions include declining a line so it is voided and detached, postponing a line to hold it back from a payout, restoring a previously declined line, and adding a manual line for an adjustment. The same operations are available through the commission lines API.Settings & configuration
Lines are reviewed from Commission and within partner payout panels.Understanding line status
A line’s workflow status reflects where it is: potential and expected lines are not yet approved, approved lines are attached to a payout, and declined lines are voided. Payment status tracks the money once a line is on a payout.Reviewing lines
Open a dashboard metric, such as potential or expected commission, to see the lines behind it, or open a partner’s payout panel to review their commission items.Declining and restoring
Decline a line to void it and detach it from a payout. Restore a declined line if it was declined in error.Postponing
Postpone a line to free it from the current payout and hold it for later; unpostpone to make it available again.Manual lines
Add a manual commission line on a payout for an adjustment, or edit an existing line where needed.Automate it with a workflow
Give commission is the workflow action that books a manual line without anyone raising a ticket: an Amount, a Currency, and a Description the partner reads on their statement. Leave the currency on Partner’s currency and it resolves per partner when the run happens, so one workflow stays correct across a program that bills in several. It lands as a normal manual line, created as pending, so it still goes through your usual approval and payout run: the automation removes the chasing, not the review. Plans that earn lines from CRM or billing data over time are a different tool, and live under Commission plans. The triggers worth hanging it off are the ones that mark an achievement: Journey completed, Certificate issued, or a partner entering a segment. See Reward a finished journey.How-to guides
