Understand Publishing Administration Reports

We provide monthly reports detailing publishing administration royalties for all compositions you're eligible to receive payments for. Only works that generated royalties in the respective month are displayed.

We collect publishing royalties from various sources with different payment schedules. Therefore, each month's report can contain different pay sources and royalties appear to fluctuate more.
