Action Commissions

Action Commissions feature allows you to define per action, or per "anything" commissions.
This way you can define commissions for example per user registration, per download, per visiting specific page, etc.
You can create unlimited number of per action commissions in every campaign, which gives you the ability to track virtually every visitor's move.

Activating the feature

This feature is available only in Professional edition. Users of Starter and Xpress editions can purchase it individually.

The feature has to be activated before it can be used. To activate it go to your merchant panel -> Configuration -> Features
There click on Activate button next to the Action Commissions feature. If you have Starter or Xpress edition, you have to buy it first.
After this, the feature is activated. Now you can add new per action commission types in your campaigns.

Setting up per action commissions

When the feature is activated, you can go to Campaign manager and open some campaign for editation. Go to the tab Commissions settings and you'll see new button Add per action commission.

Clicking on this button will open new dialogue where you can define your new per action commission.

Code of action commission should be string without spaces and special characters that you'll later use in the tracking script to specify that this action should be used. The code has to be unique within one campaign, so you cannot have actions with the same code in one campaign.
Action name should be a normal readable name of action, you'll see the commissions with this type in your reports. 
For the new action you have to define also the Commissions value and type (fixed or percentage) and possible multi-tier commissions.

Now we have created new per Registration action commission that should be fired upon user registering to our site (an example).

Note! After the creation the new commission type is disabled. Before using it, you should enable it by clicking on the Enable button.

Registering per action commissions

Now that the new per action commission is created, we can set up tracking the new action. To do that, we have to insert tracking JavaScript code to the page that should trigger the action. In our case (per Registration example) it should be a page that is displayed after the user registers.

The standard tracking code is:
<script id="pap_x2s6df8d" src="http://www.yoursite.com/affiliate/scripts/salejs.php" type="text/javascript">
</script>
<script type="text/javascript">
var sale = PostAffTracker.createSale();
sale.setOrderID('ORD_12345XYZ');
PostAffTracker.register();
</script>

Note - this is NOT the code you should use. It would create a standard per sale commission. To track per action commissions, we have to use a function createAction('actionCode') instead of createSale(), where the actionCode is the code we defined for our new action.

So the complete script for tracking our per registration action is:
<script id="pap_x2s6df8d" src="http://www.yoursite.com/affiliate/scripts/salejs.php" type="text/javascript">
</script>
<script type="text/javascript">
var action= PostAffTracker.createAction('registration');
action.setOrderID('ORD_12345XYZ');
PostAffTracker.register();
</script>

That's all, now when the page with this JavaScript code is displayed, it will create a new per registration commission for the refering affiliate.
