Entering the commission on a deal

Where the commission rate is entered on a listing or an offer, what counts as missing commission, and the "Check this" warnings.

Before this you need

#Where the commission is entered

DealFields (Details tab → Agency & Commission)
ListingListing Agent Commission Rate and Listing Agent Commission Rate Type (% or $)
OfferBuying Agent Commission Rate and Buying Agent Commission Rate Type (% or $)

A 3% commission is entered as 3 with type %. A flat $9,000 commission is entered as 9000 with type $.

From the deal’s Commission card (Overview tab) the Commission rate button opens this section straight away. On a deal with no commission yet the card shows Enter commission rate.

#Missing commission

Nothing is guessed. A deal is left out of the totals, and shown as missing commission, when it has:

  • no rate,
  • a rate but no % or $ type (shown as "Rate has no % or $ type"),
  • or no price to apply a % rate to.

The dashboards show an orange N missing commission badge and a Missing commission filter so you can find and fix them.

#"Check this"

Numbers that cannot be right are flagged with an amber Check this and the reason. The calculation still uses what was entered.

  • a % rate over 10 ("A 3% commission is entered as 3."),
  • a flat commission larger than the price,
  • a price under $10,000,
  • a referral fee of 50% or more.
