Why commissions need to stay linked to the policy
A commission only makes sense if you know which policy generated it, for which client and with which insurer. If the amounts live separately in spreadsheets, they are hard to trace back. 4insurance keeps the commission on the policy, so every amount can be followed back to the policy it comes from.
The commission field on each policy
Each policy has a commission field. The value is entered on the policy, and it is what goes into the aggregate reports.
Aggregate reports for brokers and teams
The aggregate reports add up the commissions from the recorded policies, so you can see the total of your portfolio in one view. When several team members work in the same account, the reports are built from the same policies, not from separate tables.
What the module does not do
The reporting module is a tracking tool for the broker and the team. It does not keep the company's accounts, and it does not replace the financial documents or the accounting records kept by the company's accountant.
