# Test Commission Calculation Settings

### To test the commission calculation settings, you can follow the steps provided below:

Go to the **General** section in the **Settings** tab of the GoAffPro admin panel.

![Settings > General](https://1200686697-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-legacy-files/o/assets%2F-LdPzLtyP46oY7cyXnkw%2F-MNY5Qh4eoyOcJjibQD0%2F-MNYT2AfrmwK-FFL4Yy_%2Fimage.png?alt=media\&token=22e5f360-32d2-461c-a194-b7e02254fa85)

Here, go to the Sales section.

Here, the "**Include discounts**" option is enabled and is set to adjust the commission by **discount percentage**.

In the test order's summary, we can see that the discount adjustment is deducting $20 from the sales commission: **$200 (sales commission) - $20 (discount adjustment) = $180 (total commission)**. 

The discount adjustment is calculated by the percentage of the discount applied (10%) on the sales commission ($200) which will be: **$20.**

After this, go back to the Sales section (in Settings > General) and set the "**Include discounts**" option to adjust the commission by **discount amount**.

After setting this up, the commission in the order will be adjusted by the discount amount.

Now, you will have to reprocess the order. To do that go to the Sales > All Sales table. There, click on **Reject** and **Delete** the sale. After this, re-assign the sale to the affiliate.

**You can follow the guide below to reprocess the sale:**

In the test order's summary, we can see that the discount adjustment is deducting $100 from the sales commission: **$200 (sales commission) - $100 (discount adjustment) = $100 (total commission)**. 

The discount adjustment is calculated by the amount of the discount applied in the order: **10% (discount applied) of $1000 (order subtotal) = $100.**
