Maintaining course agents

Agents are engaged to market, introduce and enrol students in courses at some organisations. For example, students from other countries enrol in your courses. Agents are paid an agreed commission based on the number of students enrolled in a course. Synergetic supports:

independent agents
agents who work as part of a larger company.

See Creditor Maintenance - General tab in the Creditors manual.

Authorise an invoice for students the agent has enrolled at your organisation. See Authorising agent invoices (on page ).
