Violet allows you to export commission rate change logs to track historical changes to commission rates between channels and merchants. This page provides details on the columns you are able to export from your commission rate change log.

The Commission Rate Change Log tracks all modifications to commission rates, including who made the change, when it occurred, and what the previous and new rates were. This provides full audit trail visibility for commission rate management across your partnerships.

The available columns vary depending on whether a channel or a merchant user is requesting the report. Channels can see merchant-specific data such as the merchant ID and the merchant name responsible for the change, while merchants can see app-specific data for their commission rate changes.
