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.

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

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.
