In your current situation I assume you are now drawing a salary as a full time employee of the business. Any income split between you and your partner would be on the profits - so you should get your salary plus 50% of any profit after expenses (including your salary). Provided your salary remains at a commensurate level then your respective incomes should reflect the realities of your current situation. No harm in your partner receiving a small salary for his administrative tasks - just make sure it reflects the level of work and (perhaps) industry norms.
