Setup

Royalties Express allows users to define titles and products, including local and foreign editions, with the appropriate identifiers (ISBN, EAN, and ASIN).

Beneficiaries and agents can be assigned to contracts, with options to specify minimum payment thresholds, VAT or sales tax status and withholding tax rates.

Historical balances and effective dates are fully controllable, ensuring flexibility for diverse publishing scenarios.

Calculation

Royalties are calculated according to a range of options, including retail price-based percentages, net-based percentages, and profit-based percentages.

Royalties Express also supports per-copy fees, quantity-based escalation, and alternative minimum fees.

Calculations can be adjusted to account for VAT or sales tax, and multiple royalty types can be applied to a single title.

Input

Sales activities, advances, adjustments, and inventory data can be entered or imported with ease.

The platform supports retail price tracking, discount application, and user-defined categories to accommodate specific reporting needs.

Output

Customizable statement templates allow publishers to tailor the appearance of royalty reports, including language and locale settings.

Statements can be downloaded as PDFs or sent directly to beneficiaries via email. The platform also supports data export for further analysis or integration with other systems.
