- Initial values
- Only the `order_affiliate_company_settings` will be populated by default. The `order_affiliate_settings` are set when an affiliate is created
`order_affiliates` - blank `order_affiliate_settings` - users start with the following: total_available - 0 (updates each time a referral order for an active client reaches maturity) total_withdrawn - 0 (updates each time a successful payout occurs, stored in the "withdrawal_currency") commission_type - (copy from company settings) commission_amount - (copy from company settings) order_frequency - (copy from company settings) order_recurring - (copy from company settings) maturity_days - (copy from company settings) min_withdrawal_amount - (copy from company settings) max_withdrawal_amount - (copy from company settings) withdrawal_currency - (copy from company settings) `order_affiliate_company_settings` - when installed for the company, set the following: enabled - false (true/false) cookie_tld - 180 (days) commission_type - percentage (possible: "percentage" or "fixed") commission_amount - 0 (the percentage or fixed amount value, e.g. "5" would be 5% or $5 depending on commission_type) order_frequency - first (possible: "first" or "any" - whether referrals are paid only for a single "first" order or any number of orders) order_recurring - false (possible: "true" or "false" - whether referrals will be paid for services ordered that renew) maturity_days - 10 min_withdrawal_amount - 10 max_withdrawal_amount - 100 withdrawal_currency - USD signup_content - HTML content (default TBD) `order_affiliate_referrals` - blank `order_affiliate_payouts` - blank
- Set initial values for any payment methods?
- total_withdrawn and total_available are in the withdrawal_currency, but it's possible you could change it. Previous total_available/withdrawn would then be inaccurate because old values were for a different currency. WHAT TO DO ABOUT IT? - We could include a warning/confirmation modal with a message if trying to change the currency to mention this. If possible, they could also adjust the total_available/withdrawn on their own to reflect the correct values for the new currency.
- Only the `order_affiliate_company_settings` will be populated by default. The `order_affiliate_settings` are set when an affiliate is created
