You can use the Adjust Commissions action to adjust the agency and/or producer/broker commission on a previously entered commissionable transaction, or add producers or brokers to the transaction.
You cannot adjust commission on a payment transaction or a transaction on a suspended statement. If a direct bill transaction has a $0.00 premium amount, you cannot adjust commissions to $0.00.
In the list, click the appropriate transaction.
Do one of the following:
Click Actions > Adjust Commissions on the options bar.

Right click the transaction and select Adjust Commissions.

You can add a producer/broker or change the producer/broker. The system verifies that there is no activity associated with the transaction (e.g., items applied, previous adjustments) and that the transaction's accounting month is still open.
You can change the producer/broker's Type of commission (Agency Net Commission, Net Agency Commission Split [available only for producers], Flat Fee, Percentage of Premium, or Percentage of Commission), the Percent or Amount of commission, and/or the Production Credit.
Production credit (Prod Credit %) is the percentage of credit a producer/broker receives on a premium or commission. The agency can run the Production Report for specific producers/brokers and review the Pr/Br Prod Cr % column to determine, based on percentage, how much business and/or revenue producers/brokers are bringing in to the agency. Producer and broker production credit must equal 100% when added together. You must enter production credit percentage for a producer using the Net Agency Commission Split commission type (click here for examples of how this is calculated).
