What are my rights working for a credit based retail company that is now taking back commissions that have been paid to us if the customers have not paid their 1st payment?

I didn’t grant these customers credit, I am not a bill collector, I’m not an enforcer of making them pay. I am instructed to sell them the product. Then once the customer takes delivery to their home, I am paid for my job. Now the company is making us sign a We Know It, to say that we are responsible for these 1st payments, as we should use the judgement to give customers credit or not. I don’t give them the credit. Do I have any legal right to fight this?
