Can I check the total commission for a specific employee using the agent?

Yes! Use the `get_employee_details` tool or the `list_payout_statements` tool. Your agent will fetch the relevant data, including the total commission amount for the period.

How do I list all the processed payouts for my team?

Simply ask the agent to `list_commission_payouts`. It will retrieve the full history of processed payouts from your CaptivateIQ account, including dates and totals.

Does the integration allow creating a new payout manual adjustment?

The current toolset focuses on querying and monitoring (Read-Only) for data analysis and payroll extraction. Adjustments or changes to the calculation logic should be managed via the CaptivateIQ web platform.
