Action inquiry resolutions

If you determine an action took place, accept the Action Inquiry.

Transaction date

Selected the date when this transaction occurred. Note that the Action Lifecycle applies from this date forward, meaning that if it's significantly in the past, the action will automatically lock and payout upon approval, so make sure you have sufficient funds in your account to pay for approved inquiries .

Event Type

Select the Event Type to which this action is tied.

Transaction details

Optionally, select [Toggle on] Specify details for this transaction if you want to add item details (SKU, Name, Quantity, Category, Subtotal, Promo Code) for this action.

Select Payout Option

Choose the payout the partner will receive for this action:

  • Accept Expected Payout Amount $XX.XX is the payout that the partner submitted in the inquiry.

  • Specify Payout Amount to set a custom payout amount for the action.

  • Generate Payout Amount will process a payout based on the contract between you and the partner.

Example scenario

Acme Inc. is an a brand that works with Wild E. Coyote as a partner. Their contract states that actions are pending for 1 month after the month they are tracked, which then lock, and payouts are sent 3 days after locking.

Wild E. Coyote drove an action on January 1 that wasn't tracked. He submits an Action Inquiry to Acme with the missing details for review. On March 5, Acme reviews Wild E. Coyote's action Inquiry and determines that action did occur, and the partner should be paid out.

If Acme accepts the action inquiry with the original January 1 transaction date, this will create a new action based on that date, and automatically lock and payout since it's been more than 1 month after pending (i.e., Pending Payout period), and more than 3 days since it would have locked. Acme needs to ensure they have enough funds in their account so that their partner will receive the payout and not enter a negative account balance.
