This article describes how to create a production credit and apply it to a provider's staff profile. This makes it possible to track the amount of the commission earned for items in particular inventory categories, based on an allocated percentage.



To create a production credit:
1. Navigate to the Settings module
2. Click on the Configurations tab
3. Select New Production Credit
4. Give the credit a name, and apply a fixed percentage to all categories, or set variable percentages across specific categories. To learn how to manage inventory categories, please click here.

Tip: The naming and percentages are completely custom. You may create a credit that you would apply to multiple staff members (eg Provider Tier 1), and/or create a credit with a name for a specific provider (eg Jane Smith credit)

To view and edit, delete, or duplicate a production credit:
1. Navigate to the Settings module
2. Click on the Configurations tab
3. Select View Production Credit
4. Scroll to the credit of interest, click the gear icon, and make the deired selection on the menu

Tip: Use Duplicate Credit to make a similar credit with slight changes in the name and/or the selected categories/percentages that you would apply to another provider, without the need to start over from the beginning. This is similar to a "Save As" function.

To track the production credit earned:
1. Navigate to the Reports module
2. Click on the Billing tab
3. If you wish to track the earned credit based on all eligible items that are invoiced, select the report
Production Credit Earned (Based On Sales) and choose the appropriate Filter
4. If you wish to track the earned credit based on all eligible items for which a payment has been collected and applied, select the report Production Credit Earned (Based On Payments) and choose the appropriate Filter

Note: Production credit only begins calculating on invoiced items after the production credit is created in the settings and applied to the provider's staff profile. Production credit is not calculated on invoices retroactively.
