Commission Audit & Compensation Governance
Stop settling commission disputes with spreadsheets and trust. Paste the compensation plan, the finalized contract, and the rep's payout claim — and a deterministic engine recomputes the commission, flags the variance, and scores the governance risk.

What this workflow does
It turns a comp plan and a payout claim into an auditable, defensible commission decision.
• Isolates Every Rule: Extracts base rates, accelerators, discount penalties, clawbacks and exceptions into a type-safe payload.
• Recomputes Deterministically: Recalculates the commission from the contract value and currency as exact floats — no rounding, no guessing.
• Flags the Variance: Compares the deterministic result against the rep's claim and surfaces the exact gap.
• Scores Governance Risk: Derives an objective Governance Score with a Low / Medium / High risk tier.
• Keeps a SOX Audit Log: Lets finance managers override any extracted rule value and recalculate, capturing every change chronologically.
How to run it
Open the workflow console and paste three inputs: the compensation plan rules, the finalized contract terms, and the rep's payout claim. Hit run to recompute the commission, see the variance against the claim, and review the Governance Score. Override any extracted rule and recalculate — every change is captured in the audit log.
Frequently asked questions
Is the rep's claim ever trusted for the math?
No. The rep's claim is used only to compute the variance. The commission itself is recalculated deterministically from the comp plan and the contract value.
What happens if the currencies don't match?
If the contract currency and the rep's claim currency differ, the audit is blocked rather than silently converted, so you never compare mismatched figures.
Can a finance manager correct an extracted rule?
Yes. Any extracted rule value can be overridden and recalculated, and every override is recorded in a chronological SOX audit log.
