USANA Volume Report Training: Learn and Understand It!

With 10+ years experience in USANA, I take for granted how much I know about USANA's compensation plan and reading the volume report. Since I received great feedback on the USANA Compensation Plan: Checking Your Volumes blog post, I wanted to answer another common question: "What the heck do all the columns on the USANA Volume Report mean?"



In this blog post and video, I'll go through each column defining what the column means and how it impacts you. Refer to the image below.

PV Amt is short for Personal Volume Amount. Your auto order (AO) and any order your place on your .001 personal through the shopping cart appears in this column. Typically, the amount in this column never goes above 100 (to keep 1 business center active) or 200 (to keep all business centers active) points.

L Vol is short for Left Volume. This column represents all new volume (AO's processed, new Associates, new PC's and any Shop@USANA orders placed in your organization) for the left side of corresponding business center.

R Vol is short for Right Volume. This column represents all new volume (AO's processed, new Associates, new PC's and any Shop@USANA orders placed in your organization) for the right side of corresponding business center.

L CO is short for Left Carry Over. This column represents all the volume that you did not get paid out on the previous week on the left side of the corresponding business center. As long as you're on a 100 point or 200 point AO, the unused or "leftover" volume will carry forward to the next week. The volume will carry over indefinitely, as long as you stay on autoship.

R CO is short for Right Carry Over. This column represents all the volume that you did not get paid out on the previous week on the left side of the corresponding business center. As long as you're on a 100 point or 200 point AO, the unused or "leftover" volume will carry forward (hence carry over) to the next week. The volume will carry over indefinitely, as long as you stay on autoship.

Left Total is the sum of L Vol and L CO. Think of it like this: L Vol + L CO = Left Total. This is the total volume in your business for the week.

Right Total is the sum of R Vol and R CO. Think of it like this: R Vol + R CO = Right Total. Look at the volume report example above on the .001 business row. 170 (R Vol) + 252 (R CO) = 422 (Right Total).

Left AO is short for Left Auto Order. This column represents the total points of Auto Orders that have processed for the week on the corresponding business center. The amount is included in the L Vol amount. USANA added this column recently when they upgraded the comp plan to include a bonus for building up a strong base of AO's.

Right AO is short for Right Auto Order. This column represents the total points of Auto Orders that have processed for the week on the corresponding business center. The amount is included in the R Vol amount. USANA added this column recently when they upgraded the comp plan to include a bonus for building up a strong base of AO's. You'll notice in the example above that the R Vol of 170 is equal to 170 in the Right AO.

CVP is short for Commission Volume Points. This column represents the base of your commission check for the week. Depending on what marketing you're in, you'll need to adjust it accordingly to your currency. In the U.S. 1 CVP = $1. In other markets, there is typically a multiplier applied to convert to the currency.

% Home SVP is short for the Percentage of Sales Volume Points based in your Home market. This USANA's International Exchange Rate Rule. Unless you have an international business, you don't need to worry about this at all. It's a mechanism USANA has in place to adjust payouts based on currency changes. When your business grows internationally, it only affects you if more than 50% of your sales comes from somewhere else.

That's the breakdown of the columns in USANA's Volume Report.
