 **Step 4: Run monthly Commission Process & Approve**
-Based off the payment schedule in the application, the process grabs all lines of distributor sales data linked to the broker contractee for the products on the contract and timeframe and produces a report to show what is owed.   Since there is a link between each broker and distributor, we can now produce a report per broker that shows all the sales for the month for their distributors and bump it up against the contract to show what is owed.  An earnings spreadsheet is sent to the client to review and approve.
+The commission processing system leverages established broker-distributor relationships and predefined payment schedules to generate comprehensive commission reports and facilitate accurate payment calculations for broker compensation programs.
