    • Auto Approve - If you want to automatically approve commissions for this action commission, enable this option.
    • Amount - The commission amount. If this is a percentage, enter the decimal equivalent. For example 0.10 for 10%
    • Commission Type - Whether this commission is flat amount or pecentage. If it is a percentage amount, make sure you set the amount value on integration.
