In this area, you can enter up to 6 incremental values and specify the percentage of the brokerage revenue that will be paid to the broker dependent on the Total Amount Financed (Excluding brokerage)

Increment 1 will always start off from $0.00 and cannot be changed. As you enter values in the subsequent Increments the Unlimited moves down to the increment that you have just entered.

The From value refers to deals that are greater than the value.

These values are used with the Broker Statement of Income reports.

When you run the reports the amount payable to the broker will be calculated based on the incremental percentages for each of the applications settled within the defined period of the report.

• Access Other Company Data?: Relevant to users who work for multiple offices (for example, the Sydney and Melbourne office).

If the user has Override User Broker Security? set to No, then administrators need to select the brokers for who this user can access the data. Clicking the Access or Search columns will add or remove a tick in that column.

• Access: A tick in the Access column means that a user can select and edit client details. An example may be a personal assistant that works for two brokers in an office. This PA would require access to these details.
• Search: A tick in the Search column means that a user can view another broker's clients whilst searching. This may assist a staff member when a client rings the office but doesn't know who the client belongs to.
