Driver Pay Improvements

Enhancement of the Pay driver page

Updated over 6 months ago

Statement Date

Most companies pay all drivers on the same date. It can be frustrating to the user to have to set the same date for every driver.

The solution is the new date field in the top left corner with the other filters, which will serve as the statement date for all driver statements generated from the driver pay page. When this updated, it updates for all drivers.

This will allows users to manually set the Statement Date on a single drivers’ statement, without changing it for the rest of them.

Cutoff Date

As requested, users now have the ability to set a Cutoff Date which serves as a filter to only display items that have an actual delivery date (DateDelivered), that is ON or BEFORE the cutoff date (DateTonu). If a trip is TONU, then the cut off date should apply to the TONU date. This filter parameter would be combined with existing parameters to determine which items are populated and selected for each driver when viewed.

Default Selection

Once the Cutoff Date filter is implemented, it recognizes that the user would want all items (trips, deductions, reimbursements, credits, taxes) to be selected by default, and only to be deselected by manual override.

UI Changes - Driver Pay

  1. Added a “Statement Date” field to the top left panel

  2. Added a “Cutoff Date” field to the top left panel

  3. Added a Select All button for deductions/reimbursements section, just as exists for trips section

  4. Summary box (top right of page, AND bottom of page) would include total hours for drivers who have hourly pay

  5. Hid the ‘Taxes’ section for all non-W2 drivers

Per Diem Credits for Drivers

Per diem per total miles rates are now represented as credits in the driver pay workflow, ensuring accurate non-taxable reporting. Previously, these rates were added directly to driver wages. The updated logic now generates credits for per diem per total miles, similar to the treatment of per diem per day rates.

Key Changes:

  • Updated Pay Logic: Per diem per total miles rates generate credits instead of being added to wages.

  • Load Details Display: The per diem per total miles rates have been removed from the load details page and are now shown as credits.

  • Driver Statements: Statements have been modified to reflect per diem payments as credits, aligning with non-taxable treatment.

Setting Per Diem Rates:

  1. Navigate to the driver’s profile.

  2. Under the “Rates” section, select the “Add Rate” button.

Rates setup

3. Choose the Per Diem rate type, then select Per Total Miles. Input the rate and click the “Add Rate” button.

Rates Setup

Once the driver is assigned a load and it reaches the Delivered status, the Per Diem credit will appear in the Pay Drivers page when the trip is selected.

Per Day Rates for Drivers

The new Per Day rate type allows for a fixed daily compensation separate from the non-taxable per diem allowance. This feature ensures that taxable per day rates are kept distinct from non-taxable per diem rates.

Setting Per Day Rates:

  1. Navigate to the driver rates configuration section.

  2. Create and configure the Per Day rate through the driver rates settings, defining the fixed daily amount.

  3. The Pay Drivers page now displays a line item showing the rate type, days worked, per day rate, and total compensation.

Users can adjust the number of days worked, with an initial default set to zero.

Driver Statement Updates:

Driver statement templates now include a new "Time" category, where per day rates are displayed, ensuring clarity on compensation related to daily rates.
