Title: 12 Month Commission View Removed
Post by: CD123 on April 09, 2013, 13:13
In the past we were able to see the last 12 months commission, making it possible to compare your progress and see if the current month is going to influence your level and to which extent. Now it only displays current year stats.

I can only assume that it was done to reduce database access and processing time, but it is leaving us quite blind to our level progress or demise. Not a very considerate move. Hope they will bring it back if enough of us complain (didn't work with the commission cut, but hopefully this is not too much asked).

you still can see them. On the line monthly earnings on the right hand side there is a drop down menu, where you can select the year you want to review.

Oh, OK, thank you. So they did not take it completely away, they just made it 10x more difficult to make a quick comparison. Well, I hope it is worth the extra speed advantage to them.

Actually, I think they did this because last spring people were complaining about halving to scroll down to see the results for the current month. I kind of miss the old way too.

Last spring we did not have to fight each month to hold or better our commission rates, by comparing sales against the same period the previous year. So I think that request was surpassed by a new need, called transparency.
Oh well, if we want that know, we just have to search for it I guess...  ::)

My fear is that the extra processing drain on their server would only make them cut our commissions even more. Therefore, although this is too our disadvantage to compare previous years stats, the alternative of receiving less money is even worse. When I signed up to 123rf I signed up to 50% not this system. The goal posts were changed to suit them!
