The Rate you will use needs to be calculated from the Summ by FE report. You need to work out what percentage of the invoice that particular fee earner earned and apply it to the amount of discount.
E.g. Fee Earner 1 earned $20 of a $100 invoice. This means that they earnt 20% of the invoice and will get 20% of the adjustment.
Once you have found the correct amount, enter it in to the Rate column as a negative.
Note: this amount must be the GST EXCL amount
Repeat for further fee earners and lines as required
Once all lines are entered, check the Total Inclusive matches the total adjustment amount.
