    3. If  deduction does “not” create a banking transaction,  assign “None” as the vendor
  • Create all possible deductions so that they are available during commission processing
    1. Note must create multiple deductions if more than one may applied on one side of a commission (e.g., 2 referrals on same side) deductions cannot have identical name (e.g., LS Referral One and LS Referral Two)
