Overview

The Commission Adjustments feature in AGENTVIEW allows you to accurately track your true earnings for each transaction by accounting for additional fees and credits. In real estate transactions, commissions are often impacted by costs such as transaction coordinator (TC) fees, broker fees, referral fees, or client credits. This feature ensures that these items are included in your calculation so that your final commission reflects your actual net income.

Accessing Commission Adjustments

To use the Commission Adjustments feature, navigate to the Commission Tracker and either create a new commission or open an existing commission record. Once inside the commission details screen, you will see the main commission input fields followed by the Adjustments section.

Step 1: Enter Commission Details

Begin by entering the core details of your commission. AGENTVIEW supports two calculation methods:

Commission-Based Calculation

Enter the following:

• Sale Price
• Commission Percentage
• Your Split Percentage

The system will automatically calculate your base commission using these values.

Amount-Based Calculation

If the transaction uses a fixed commission, simply enter the flat commission amount. This will be used as your base commission.

Step 2: Understand the Base Commission

After entering your commission details, AGENTVIEW will display the calculated commission. This amount represents your base commission, which is your earnings before any additional fees or credits are applied.

Step 3: Add Adjustments

Scroll to the Adjustments section located below the commission inputs. Click the “+ Add” button to create a new adjustment.

Each adjustment requires the following:

• Label: A description of the adjustment (e.g., “TC Fee,” “Broker Fee,” “Referral Fee,” or “Client Credit”)
• Type:
  • Subtract → Deducts the amount from your commission
  • Add → Increases your commission
• Amount: The dollar value of the adjustment

You may add multiple adjustments as needed. Each entry will appear as a separate line item.

Step 4: Review Net Commission

As adjustments are added or modified, AGENTVIEW will automatically update your Net Commission in real time.

The system calculates your final commission using the following formula:

Base Commission ± Adjustments = Net Commission

The Net Commission reflects your true earnings after all deductions and additions have been applied.

Step 5: Edit or Remove Adjustments

You can update any adjustment at any time by modifying its label, type, or amount. To remove an adjustment, click the delete (×) button next to the entry.

All changes will update the Net Commission displayed on the screen when you click on the Update Commission button.

Step 6: Save Your Changes

Once all commission details and adjustments are complete, click Save to store your updates. AGENTVIEW will save both the individual adjustments and the final net commission value for the transaction.

Example

Below is an example of how adjustments affect your final commission:

• Base Commission: $10,000
• TC Fee (Subtract): $500
• Broker Fee (Subtract): $1,000
• Client Credit (Add): $300

Net Commission: $8,800

Best Practices

• Use adjustments to track all transaction-related costs
• Keep labels clear and consistent for easier reporting
• Review your Net Commission before saving
• Update adjustments as transaction details change

Summary

The Commission Adjustments feature enhances AGENTVIEW by providing a complete financial breakdown of each transaction. By incorporating all relevant fees and credits, it ensures that your commission records accurately reflect your true earnings, helping you stay organized and informed across your business.
