As of now, 'Add Manual Sales For An Affiliate' in workflows only applies to affiliate campaigns, which have a direct payout selected. Practically it applies to direct to offer strategies (product purchase on the website) or pay per lead campaings only.

All consultation businsses are based on commision payouts per closed deal. The lead comes in and will have a setting and closing call, in which he will get send documents/estimates and invoiced from there. As of now it's neither possible to set a document/estimate/invoice template the affiliate campaign goal, nor payment links, nor add non-subscription based products (with one-time pricings or payment plans which are limited in time) in the 'External Website' setting in the campaign goals, nor is it possible to close the client in another streamlined way which allows tracking for the affiliate: The only imaginable way is to create a landing page/shop with an order form and trust the deal closer that he would send the affiliate's link to the client... For obvoius reasons, that's not a viable solution.

A similar problem regards the sub-affiliation. To add subaffiliates, the campaign has to have tiers set. To set tiers, you have to have a pay per lead or direct to offer campaing with commissions payout per website purchse, which does not apply to any consultation based business.
