If an ARC accredited agency forgot to take a $25.00 commission on a ticket transaction that was reported sixteen weeks ago, the agent will...

• A. Issue a debit memo
• B. Issue a Sales Summary Adjustment Request (SSAR)
• C. Issue an Agent Automated Deduction (AAD)
• D. Do nothing

Answer: (B)

When a commission was not taken on a ticket that has already been reported, the proper way to correct the record is to submit a Sales Summary Adjustment Request. The SSAR is the mechanism ARC uses to adjust the commissions tied to a previously reported Sales Summary, so the missing $25 can be reflected in the agency’s earnings despite the time that has passed. This path directly updates the sales data and commission amounts in ARC’s system. A debit memo isn’t the right tool here because it’s used for other kinds of financial corrections or charges outside the standard commission adjustment flow. An Agent Automated Deduction is an automatic withdrawal used for penalties or unresolved balances, not for reclaiming a missed commission on a past transaction. Doing nothing would leave the missed commission unrecorded, so the SSAR is the correct and supported process for this situation.
