The calculation of royalties depends largely on the terms of the license agreement and the resulting accounting rules.
Put simply, royalties are calculated by multiplying a sales quantity at a specific base price with a royalty rate. A simple example would be 1.000 CDs * 7 PPD * 20% royalty rate = 1.400 .
However, if royalty calculation was always this simple, there would be no need for a database solution like detYils. This article shows you how to set up more complex rules for royalty calculation correctly.
In detYils you can manage rules for royalty calculation separately for each channel
