Commission incorrectly paid: reversals and corrections

A correction can be done to rectify commission paid to the wrong Partners due to the wrong allocation.

Why?

A correction is done in the current period when commission was allocated to the wrong Product Agreement and/or Responsible Partner in the past. That means that the correction will be applicable in your next payment period.

Example: reverse monies paid to Petrus, and allocate to Ansie instead:

Partner

Client Name

Product Number

Agreement

Production Ex VAT

Allocation Ex VAT

Action

Petrus Schoeman

JC Notingham

100001234

Petrus 100

-116.28

-116.28

Reversed

Ansie Pretorius

JC Notingham

100001234

Ansie 100

116.28

116.28

Corrected

Note: If the commission was paid incorrectly in the current period, you need to change the Product Agreement and/or Responsible Partner instead of doing a correction - do NOT follow the steps in this article.

You can follow the following link for the necessary information to do a change.


How?

Step 1: Navigate to Products

Step 2: Use the filter to look up the Product Number to be corrected and click on the pencil button:

Step 3: Scroll down to the Product Commission:

Step 4: Select the incorrectly allocated commission that needs to be corrected in the current period and click Correct:

Step 5: You need to complete the following information and then click Reverse and Correct

  • Reversal Date – The date on which the correction must take place

    • Note: the correction date will automatically be the day after the reversal

  • Agreement – The new Product Agreement for this Product Number

  • Responsible Partner – The new Responsible Partner


How do I know when it's done/successful?

The correction is now completed. You will see the correction reflected on the Statements tab:

Important!

You might need to Deallocate and Link the statement(s) with a statement date after the date of the reversal/correction so that the new Product Agreement will be implemented.

Upon completion of the reversal and correction, Commspace also automatically added a new Product Agreement with the new Valid From Date (correction date):

As always, we recommend drawing a report to ensure that your correction reflects as expected.

If you're stuck at any part of this process, don't hesitate to reach out to Commspace Support via email or the blue in-app button. 😊
