Create Split Rules & Overrides

When to use a split rule

A split rule replaces the vendor's usual commission for matching items. Use one when a SKU, tag, or product type should pay a different rate, when the Shopify vendor should be credited to someone else, or when one sale should pay more than one vendor.

Create a rule

1. Open Vendors.
2. Open Split rules / overrides.
3. Click Create new split rule.

4. The page heading is Create Override Split. Under Override applies to, choose one:
   • Variant SKU
   • Product Title
   • Product Tag
   • Product Type
   • Discount Code (this will apply to all line items in the order)
   • Order Source (POS, Web, or Shopify Draft Order)
   • Order Tag (this will apply to all line items in the order)
5. Enter the matching value, then set Override Split and choose % or Fixed Amount.
6. Optional: Override Vendor Mapping (optional) credits a different vendor than the one on the Shopify product.
7. Optional: under Clone Line Item (optional), check Yes, duplicate this line item for multiple splits calculations when one product must pay more than one vendor. This duplicates the line in your sales totals.
8. Click Submit.

Edit or delete a rule

On Split rules / overrides, the table columns are Applies to... and Override Split. Each row has Edit and Delete. Edit opens Edit Override Split. Click Submit to save.
