Transport Pro Recurring Settlements

Recurring settlements automate deductions, earnings, or reimbursements—for example an automatic loan repayment from a driver’s settlement. You can set a cap and a recurrence pattern for a defined period.

Summary

Add a recurring settlement with status, account, code, type, rate, optional cap, start date, and recurrence pattern. Use companion codes for garnishments, then search and edit recurrences as needed.

Add a Recurring Settlement

Go to Settlements > Recurring Settlements > Add Recurring Settlement (menu path may vary slightly by installation).

Recurring Deduction, Earning, or Reimbursement entry form.
  • Status: Active (running), Hold, or Complete (finished).
  • Account Name: Required—the driver or account receiving the deduction, earning, or reimbursement. Existing accounts autocomplete as you type.
  • Driver / Tractor / Trailer: Optional. Useful for fleet owners (settlements split by tractor) or insurance tied to a tractor. For a single owner-operator who slip seats, omit the truck so you do not have to update it when equipment changes.
  • Code: Settlement code that appears on the settlement. Must already exist (see billing and settlement codes). The code’s rate drops in and can be overridden.
  • Type: Deduction, earning, or reimbursement.
  • Create initial entry?: Check to push through immediately. Available only before the first save.
  • Rate: Flat rate, or percentage when recurrence is Per Settlement (Gross) or Pay Per Settlement (Net).
  • Cap amount: Optional maximum (for example stop deductions after a $1,500 loan is repaid).
  • Start date: When the recurrence begins. Recurrences are not retroactive—if you enter after the start date, check Create initial entry to push the first occurrence.
  • Recurrence pattern: Time schedule (daily/weekly/monthly/yearly with end date or occurrence count), per load, or per settlement.
  • Comments: Optional internal or external notes.

Add a Companion Code

Companion codes are optional and typically used for garnishments—for example a $100 weekly deduction with a matching $100 reimbursement showing payment to the IRS.

  • Companion Code: Must already exist as a settlement code.
  • Companion Code Type: Deduction, earning, or reimbursement.
  • Companion Method: Flat or percentage.
  • Companion Amount: Amount for the companion entry.
  • Companion Default Account: Driver or vendor (for example IRS). Add vendors under Settlements > Settlement Vendors > Add New Vendor if needed.
Companion code section on the recurring settlement form.
