REVIEW ASSOCIATE ANNIVERSARY DATES
- On the first business day after you complete your month-end close (at least 24 hours later), to allow the system to properly update all transaction data from the previous month, access the Standard Reports > Birthdays and Anniversaries. Remove all columns other than Cap Anniv. Month and Royalty Anniv. Month. Filter to the current month for Cap Anniversary Month and then Royalty Anniversary Month to see a list of all agents who have started a new Company Dollar and Royalty Anniversary Year.
- Agent Company Dollar and Royalty will need to be recalculated on any unposted transactions for agents beginning a new anniversary year. To do this, access Standard Reports > Pending Sales for a list of all unposted transactions. Open each transaction for the agents on the list that was pulled above (the Birthdays and Anniversaries report) and click the Auto Calculation in the Agent Detail screen, then Save Transaction.
