Prorated Agent Deductions

Step 1

Add deduction to transactions or commission template by clicking "add" > "Pre-split deduction" or "Post-split deduction":

Step 2

Apply award allocation pro-rate option by selecting Prorated according to > award allocation:

Worked example: How a prorated deduction is calculated

Suppose a transaction has a $600 E&O fee set as a post-split deduction, prorated according to award allocation. Three agents share the deal with the following award allocations:

Agent

Award Allocation

Share of Total

Prorated E&O Deduction

Agent A

50%

50 ÷ 100 = 50%

$600 × 50% = $300

Agent B

30%

30 ÷ 100 = 30%

$600 × 30% = $180

Agent C

20%

20 ÷ 100 = 20%

$600 × 20% = $120

Total

100%

$600

Each agent's deduction is proportional to their award allocation — Agent A carries the largest share ($300) because they hold 50% of the deal, while Agent C carries the smallest ($120) at 20%. The full $600 E&O fee is distributed with nothing left unaccounted for.
