This article explains how to use Bulk Actions in Affiliate Manager to approve, deny or delete several affiliate commissions at once. You can use Bulk Actions from an affiliate's profile or from the Affiliate Manager dashboard.


What are Bulk Actions for affiliate commissions?

Bulk Actions let you manage several commission records at once. You can use them from the affiliate profile or the main commissions dashboard. This means you don't have to approve or delete commissions one by one, which saves you time.

Important: Only Denied commissions can be deleted. If a commission isn't already denied, deny it before you try to delete it.

Bulk tools help you manage commissions faster and with less effort.

  • Approve or deny several commissions at once, and delete eligible Denied commissions in bulk

  • Use bulk actions from both the affiliate profile and the main dashboard

  • Save time during busy commission reviews or payouts

  • Filter commissions by status (approved, pending, denied) or campaign
