Order sets the sequence in which commissions are applied to a conversion.
What decides which commissions run
- Every commission whose conditions match the conversion is applied. One conversion can therefore create several transactions.
- A Commission ID in the tracking request narrows this to that one commission.
Order does not decide whether a commission is used, only when it is processed. See How PalDock picks a commission.
How the list is ordered
- Order is kept separately for each offer and conversion type, so moving a commission up affects that offer and that type only.
- Workspace commissions and partner commissions have their own order. Partner commissions are chosen by commission group, not by position.
- A new commission is added to the end of its list.
Why the sequence matters
Transactions are created in this order, so it is also the order you see them in and the order in which they are sent out through the Tracking API. Put the commission you consider the main one for that conversion type first.
