Using the Driver Cashout Report
The Driver Cashout Report allows you to keep track of how much you should be paying your drivers. This report with calculate the settings that you have in place for driver pay (commission or flat rate) and adds the tip to that amount. The best way to use this tool is to use the button “Mark All Paid and Reconciled” on any orders that the driver conducted as you actually pay your driver. You may also do this on a schedule, but make sure that you are only marking the orders as paid and reconciled if you actually have! To use this tool, follow the instructions below:
Navigate to the header and select Reports>Driver>Driver Cashout
Select your date range and driver, or add in other parameters for your search as desired. Once your parameters are set, click “Generate Report”
You can then view how much is owed to the driver in tips, commission, and in total (this driver is set to only receive tips as compensation - your drivers will typically have both)
Once you know how much you owe your driver, pay them using the system that you have in place for driver payment. Once the driver is paid, you will want to mark the orders as paid and reconciled by either checking off each individual order using the checkboxes to the left of the order number, or by using the “Mark All Paid & Reconciled” button to reconcile all orders
The next step is to do this on a schedule! You are always able to go back in long after you have paid your drivers to update the status of your orders, but reconciling the driver cashout will allow you to pull reports in the future for what was paid to them right from your software.
