Offices that use a commission-based structure to pay preparers can run this report to display commission totals by preparer.
The report calculates commissions on amounts paid on returns, thus for a return that has either not been fully paid or has been overpaid, there will be a difference in the fees showing on this report and the fees showing on other reports.
