# Close commission period (AR506500)

Last modified February 19, 2026

> In this window, you can view information about commissions earned by salespersons during the selected commission period.


This topic provides information about the elements in this window in Visma Net, such as fields, field values, buttons, and check boxes.

In this window, you can view information about commissions earned by salespersons during the
selected commission period.
You can also close a commission period for which
commissions have been calculated in the [Calculate commissions (AR505500)](https://docs.vismasoftware.no/visma-net-erp/help/customer-ledger/customer-ledger-windows/calculate-commissions-ar505500/index.md) window.

Also, you can reopen the last closed period and void any prepared commissions.
Before you open the latest closed period, make sure the commission for the current period has not been calculated or has been voided.

The window is available if the **Commissions** functionality is enabled in the [Enable/disable functionalities (CS100000)](https://docs.vismasoftware.no/visma-net-erp/help/common-settings/enable-or-disable-functionalites/enable-disable-functionalities-cs100000/index.md) window.
