How to calculate the distributor’s commission from the royalty report CSV?

Learn how to calculate the distributor’s commission amount using the royalty report CSV file.

If you downloaded your royalty reports in CSV format and want to calculate the distributor’s commission amount, here’s how to do it.

1 - Exclude split rows

Exclude the rows where the Parent Sale ID column is not blank.

If a row has a number in this column, that row contains split data.

This step isn’t necessary if your White Label account doesn’t have the royalty splits feature enabled.

Subtract the sum of the Net Amount after User Contract column from the sum of the Net Amount after Tenant Withholding column.

The result is the distributor’s commission amount.


To validate this, you can find the same amount in the Sale Report view in Backstage:
