For Parent category commission calculation
If the admin has added commission on the parent category and filled the commission(%) and Fixed commission, then the commission will calculate on the Parent category, After the sale of the Parent category product,
For example- If the admin has set the commission for parent category commission (%) – 10 and Fixed commission – 10, after the sale of the product and both admin and seller order status must be completed after that category commission will be calculated.
When a customer has ordered the seller product of the parent category after the seller order status and Admin order status is completed then the parent category commission will calculate.
For example- We have added some products like- iPhone, in the parent category (Components), after the customer has ordered the product, both Seller and Admin order status is completed, then commission(%) and Fixed commission will go to admin, and rest amount will go to the seller.
Admin will get- $20.10
Seller will get - $80.90
If Admin has added commission on Sub category then the commission will calculate on sub category, After the sale of sub-category product.
For Sub category commission calculation
If the admin has added commission on the Subcategory and fills the commission (%) and fixed commission.
For example- If the admin has set the commission for Subcategory commission (%) – 15 and Fixed commission – 25, after the sale of the product and both admin and seller order status must be completed after that category commission will calculate.
When a customer has ordered the seller product of a sub-category after the seller order status and Admin order status is completed then the sub-category commission will calculate.
For example- We have added some products like- Samsung Syncmaster, in the sub-category (Monitors), after the customer has ordered the product, both Seller and Admin order status is completed, then commission(%) and Fixed commission will go to admin, and rest amount will go to the seller.
Admin will get- $55.00
Seller will get - $145.00
So, category commission needs to be separately set for the Parent category and sub-category.
Parent category commission will not apply to sub-category products.
When Seller order and Admin order status are completed then category commission will calculate.
