About Pay Periods

How to manage pay periods for driver settlements.

Written by Cade Vanneman

Getting Started

Navigate to settings and select pay periods. This is where you'll create a schedule to pay your company drivers and owner operators.

These pay periods will show in driver settlements allowing you to create more organized statements for drivers and which allow our system to better understand "time worked" for time-based pay.

Pay Period Setup

  • How often do you pay your drivers?

  • Does this apply to all or a specific group?

Using the form, build a schedule that works best for you! We have found it's most common to select "all" drivers and pay them "weekly", but you may split this out by driver type, subsidiary or even have a custom list.

Managing a Pay Period

You can edit a pay period by selecting and clicking edit on the table row.

  • I need to add or remove drivers: Edit the pay period and select the correct driver type or use "custom" to build a list. PLEASE NOTE: Removing a driver means you will need to add them to a different pay period to run payroll.

  • I need to change the dates for a pay period: Simply update the pay frequency to a different recurring schedule or move the "day of the week" to match the day you'd like to start pay period every cycle.

Using pay periods while running payroll

Pay periods are a consistent way to organize driver statements and a common accounting practice. You'll find pay periods will apply once you start to build a draft statement.

  1. In the open tab select transactions you'd like to build a statement with.

  2. Select the pay period they belong on.

  3. Click approve to move them to a draft statement (on the drafts tab).

  4. Click the drafts tab to view statements ready to be generated.
