As soon as you have defined and saved the main settings for your commission rule, you will find it appearing in the list of rules on the main page. To define the conditions, go to the relevant rule and click on the icon. If you do so, a panel will appear below the rule looking more or less like this:
...
Every row in this panel represents a condition and is structured like a conditional phrase, starting with the word if. The sentence continues to mention what you have based your rule on in the main settings, the number of confirmed conversions in this example above. If you want your rule only to apply to conversions from a specific product category or a conversion target, you can define this in the next two menus in the row – otherwise, just select ‘all’ in both menus.

If you have created a bonus rule, you will see the following panel will appear once you click the icon:

As with the assignment conditions, every row in this panel represents a condition and is structured like a conditional phrase, starting with the word if. The first part of the sentence equals the sentence in the assignment conditions: first, it states what you have based your rule on in the main settings and second it states whether you have limit your condition conversions from a specific product category or a conversion target, you can define this in the next two menus in the row – or just let all categories and targets apply. What follows is the operator, via which you decide whether the number must equal (>=) or be bigger (>) than your criterion, which you fill in in the next field. Following the example above, the first half of your sentence is now:

To get an overview on how often a set rule applies to the number of assigned ad spaces you can have a look at the rule history. By clicking on the icon you can see the history of the last 10 corresponding job runs of a certain rule with the latest, currently running job firstly listed, followed by previous runs:
...
As you can see, the latest job is listed first. The icon indicates that the defined period for the rule has not yet been completed. The column right next to it shows the period followed by the exact dates of the observation period so that you are able to derive when the period is finished and the decision for whether the rule will apply or not is made. The column ‘Adspaces (affected/assigned)’ shows the number of ad spaces that are assigned to this rule as well as the number of ad spaces for which the rule applied. By comparing these two figures you can check how strict, relevant etc. your rule is. This can be a good indication to change the rule settings and conditions. You are also able to export this information by clicking on the icon of the relevant job run/period. The files contain all ad spaces with their performance values comparing them to the specific rule conditions.
