Third Parties
#############

Le Sage strives to keep track of the source of the data it manages.
For this, it is necessary to create *third parties*. They may be authors, clients or sub-publishers.

Third parties are created from the Sage configuration screen:

Configuration :

	- *name*
	- the *% to keep* : percentage to be kept on rights collected through an import of rights (normally 100%).
	- *Currency*: default "EUR". If the right provider is a foreigner and you are processing the sums collected in their original currency, this information will not have to be repeated with each import.
	- *Import filter*: Third parties use different files to communicate the rights. By indicating a filter, it will be automatically selected when the Third Party is chosen at the time of import.
