This article outlines the steps to process commissions after 7/1/2024 for XBS for PREO Proposals that have been invoiced through E-Automate. This article does not cover ValueQuix, XITS, or other transactions that happen outside of PREO.

Open Commission Management

As a Regional Admin or Commission Admin, you will have a Commission Management page in your navigation list.

Click on Processing > Proposal & Wallet Balance

There are many tools available to us as Commission Administrators. For standard processing of commission (PREO Proposals that have been invoiced in E-Automate) use the Proposal & Wallet Balance page.

Filter Proposals Eligible for Commission Payout

1G deals in PREO will be eligible for commission payout based on a Financial Install (β€œFI”) date only. This date is determined on a deal invoicing the total expected funding amount as reported in EA or if ALL the Sales Orders under the deal show in EA as Delivered/ Fulfilled. Commission will pay when the entire deal has financially installed. There will not be partial payouts for some equipment being delivered, as PREO does not support partial payouts.
