Payroll Payment Type Differentiation for Solo and Team Trips

Payroll Payment Type Differentiation for Solo and Team Trips

The Payroll Settings functionality, accessible via both Employee > Payroll Settings and Entity Payroll Settings, includes options for managing payments for Linehaul, Shuttle, and Spot trips. This feature provides a column where you can select different payment types for Solo and Team trips.

When navigating to the "Payroll According to Settlement Trips" section, you will observe an additional column. This column is specifically dedicated to payments for Solo and Team trips within the Linehaul, Shuttle, and Spot categories. It provides flexibility to choose distinct payment types for each.


By default, when you select a payment type in the Solo column, the same type will automatically be populated in the Team column. However, you can manually override this default selection for the Team column if needed. For instance, if you choose "Pay rate per mile" for Solo, it will also appear for Team by default. You can then change the Team selection to "Pay Percentage rate" if that better suits your needs.

It's important to be aware of certain restrictions when selecting payment types:

  • The "Pay $80 Per Diem overnight rate" checkbox can only be selected if the Linehaul payment type is set to "Pay rate per mile" for the Team category.
  • The "Deduct fuel surcharge from $AMT" checkbox can only be selected if "Pay Percentage rate" is chosen as the payment type for either Solo or Team.


The Calculation Memory pop-up within the SubTotal column of the payroll report displays detailed calculations for both Solo and Team trips, offering more granular insight into your payroll.
