Options include:

  • Payroll
    Used for company drivers. This is the default option.

  • Accts Payable
    Used if the driver is an owner/operator and you plan to pay the owner/operators as drivers rather than tractors.

    Note: Drivers that are Owner/Operators should have a Pay To profile. You should set up that profile before creating the Driver profile.

  • None
    Used when the driver is never paid directly, such as a driver who works for an Owner/Operator.

    Note: The system retrieves trips for drivers who are marked as Accounts Payable and/or Payroll. If the Actg Type field has been set incorrectly to Accounts Payable or Payroll instead of None, this retrieval will include drivers who should not be paid through TMW.Suite.
