Refunds can slip an affiliate tier
Affiliate sales minus refunds can fall under a tier floor. Slip gap = max(0, floor − net). Slip risk % = gap / floor × 100. Type sales, refunds, and tier floor.
Pair: Affiliate tier slip on Traffic. Net: VAT vs net. Clawback: late CB clawback.
What you type
Sales — affiliate sales $ or count in the tier window (export).
Refunds — refunds / chargebacks that cut that sales set.
Tier floor — written floor that keeps the tier (IO / network — typed).
Net = sales − refunds. Slip when net is under the floor. Fix refund quality or pace when slip risk is material — do not invent a slip chip.
What not to do
Do not invent a slip percent. Do not mix VAT lines into sales without splitting. Do not treat CB reserve lag as the tier floor. Do not average every offer when one owns the hole.
