Adding a deduction
It is possible to make a deduction when you pay the broker's commission. It is called a Deduction and it can be done through the following steps:
Create the Invoice element
Go to Administration > Setup > Invoicing elements > Items > create
Â
Fill in the different fields (especially those with red stars) - note that the "billing group" must be Deduction
Â
Click Save and Close once completed
Â
If the deduction is not taxable, exempt the taxes by clicking on the pencil.
Â
Add the deduction in the agent’s profile
Go to Agents / Non-Agents > Agents, then select the agent to whom the deduction applies to
Â
In the agent's profile, go to the Deductions section and choose Add
Â
Choose the invoice element previously created for the deduction and fill in the other fields
Â
Once done, click Save and Close or Save and add a new one
Â
You can set either a percentage of deduction (based on the broker's commission), or a fixed amount.
It is possible to add a supplier to pay the deduction rather than to the broker
