Allow Start Date in Bonus Calculation

This setting, when set to 'True', will allow entry of a 'Start Date' value when the 'All 'Posted' Records' option is selected on the Calculate Driver Bonus window. This will let the user specify a Date Range for the payments that will be used to calculate the Driver Bonus (previously only a 'Cut Off Date' was used as a variable. Default is set at 'False'.

Copy Leg Date in Driver Pay Tab

This option controls whether or not to copy the 'Leg Date' in the selected driver record on Driver Pay Tab when entering a new driver pay record. Available values are 'False' (default value) and 'True' which if selected, instructs the system to copy Leg Date to driver pay tab when a new driver pay record is entered.

This option controls whether or not to copy the 'User Fields' into Driver Pay Tab when entering a new driver pay record. You can select what user fields to be copied to the new driver pay record. Check all relevant user fields to be copied according to your business needs.

Create Pay Entries for Contracts with Pay Code Only

When set to 'True', the bonus calculation will only create pay entries for those contracts which have that pay code. Default is set at 'False'.

Default Value for Zero Mileage Legs

Enter a number to override a zero distance value for LTL Mileage. Valid values are any Float/Integer value. Default is set at '0'.

Delay Pay on Trips

Default is set at 'False'. If this option is set to 'True', users will be prevented from approving driver pay (in the Driver Pay Audit program) until all freight bills on the associated trip have been updated by the Billing Register program, regardless of whether the pay was freight bill or trip based (according to the setup in the Driver Pay Contracts program).

Filter For All

When set to 'True', the same Filters will be used for all Users. When set to 'False', each User will have their own unique Filter setup. Default is set at 'False'.

Subtotal GLTRANS Postings

If set to True (the default), then when GLTRANS records are created, all the GL transactions in the audit/register run are grouped/summed together by GL account and date (one lump figure per combination). If set to False, then the figures are grouped/lumped by GL account, date, and source transaction ID.

PRCONFIG.EXE - Payroll Configuration

PRGLREG.EXE - Payroll GL Register

Allow Inactive GL

This config option can enable error-checking for inactive GL accounts by any of the TruckMate 'register' applications. By default, this option is set to 'True', meaning that the register will behave as in past versions of TruckMate (i.e. no error-checking is done on the GL Accounts that have transactions processed against them).

If this value is changed to 'False' or 'Warn', then when a user clicks the 'Print Report' button, if any of the GL Accounts selected for the report are inactive, a pop-up warning will display, listing the inactive accounts. The reports will still print and the user can check the 2nd (GL) report to see which transactions contain the inactive GL Accounts. When the user clicks the 'Post' button, however, some functionality will be disabled (depending on if 'False' or 'Warn' is chosen):

  • If 'False', you will get an error message and you will not be able to post. (The error message will suggest possible solutions to allow posting).

  • If 'Warn', you will be asked whether you wish to post anyway (you may click 'No' to abort the post).

Note: This config option has no effect on a Reprint, as there is no point in error-checking transactions that have already been posted.

Subtotal GLTRANS Postings

If set to True (the default), then when GLTRANS records are created, all the GL transactions in the audit/register run are grouped/summed together by GL account and date (one lump figure per combination). If set to False, then the figures are grouped/lumped by GL account, date, and source transaction ID.

PROFILE.EXE - Customer & Vendor Profiles

yellowbox

Addr Zone Validation

This option, when set to 'True' will use the Mileage Server program’s address validation functionality as normal. When set at 'False' the address validation is not invoked if the address' Zone is changed and when it is invoked it does not update the Zone.

Allow Addition of Non-Existent Commodities

This option allows the User to add non-existent commodities to a Customer’s profile. If this config option is set to 'True' and a Client’s commodity is inserted with no corresponding master commodity record, a stored procedure ('INSERT_CLIENT_COMMODITY') is called to insert the master record.

Allow Approvers to Change Status on Client Change Requests Assigned to Others

This option has 3 choices: 'None', 'All' and 'Direct', default is 'None'. When a request is submitted (set to pending status), the submitter chooses the user, user group, or job title to indicate who should approve the request. These approvers will get warnings when they go to exit the app and have pending requests assigned to them. One TruckMate carrier may decide to only allow the specified user or group to approve/reject/re-assign the request, in such case this option must be set to 'None'. Another TruckMate carrier may decide that the assigned approver is only a guideline and any approver (with security rights) may approve/reject/re-assign the request in this case this option must be set to 'All'. Yet another TruckMate carrier may decide that the assigned approver must approve/reject/re-assign the request in most cases - with an exception that an approver who has security rights to by-pass the vetting process (apply a direct change) may also approve/reject/re-assign the request, in which case this option must be set to 'Direct'.

Allow Approver to Change Status on Others' Entry Type Client Change Requests

The available values for this option are 'False', which is the default value, and 'True'. If this option is set to 'True', a user that has 'Approver' privileges (as set in Security Setup program > Security > Business Events > Misc) will be allowed to change the status of Client Change requests that are still in 'Entry' status. The approver can either submit the change request or cancel it.

Allow Approvers to Change Status on Their Own Client Change Requests

The value of this option is either 'True' or 'False', default is 'False'. It usually does not make sense for a user to create and submit a request, then approve it him/herself. However, in some business cases, when several people/departments are required to "Approve" a request, the 'Submitter' maybe need to be among those who can "Approve" it.

Allow Approvers to Edit Other Users' Client Change Requests

Available values are 'True' and 'False', the default value is 'False'. If set to 'True'; users that are set to be approvers in Security Setup program will be able to edit change requests submitted by other users. If you want only submitters of change requests to edit their own requests you should set this option to 'False'. This option is only applicable if the 'Audit / Vet Client Changes' configuration item is set to 'Both' (B).

Audit / Vet Client Changes

This option has three possible values: 'Auditing Only', 'Both Auditing and Vetting' and the default value 'Neither'. If the default value is kept 'Neither' the system will disable all auditing and vetting features on changes of client profiles and all fields and tabs related to auditing and vetting on changes of client profiles will be invisible to users. If set at 'Auditing Only' the system will enable auditing features only so the changes are recorded and tracked. If set at 'Both Auditing and Vetting' the system will enable the auditing features and the vetting features, in other words the system will record every change attempt to client profiles and provide the capability of an authorised user to review and approve other users changes.

Audit / Vet Client Changes - Routing

This option extends the client auditing and vetting features to include routing. This option can only be 'False' which is the default value or 'True'.

Audit / Vet Client Changes - Tariff Classes

This option extends the client auditing and vetting features to include tariff classes. This option can only be 'False' which is the default value or 'True'.

Auto Gen Client Key

Allows you to automatically generate numerical Customer Codes when you enter a new profile in the Customer and Vendor Profiles program, rather than entering your own codes. Use this option in conjunction with the 'Auto key pad Width' option. The available values for this option are:

  • True: Generates a clientId (Customer Code) based on an integer sequence.

    If any of the name, province and city values are missing in the Request body, an error is returned.

Auto Gen Vendor Key

Allows you to automatically generate numerical Vendor Codes when you enter a new profile in the Customer and Vendor Profiles program, rather than entering your own codes. Use this option in conjunction with the 'Auto key pad Width' option. The available values for this option are:

    If any of the name, province and city values are missing in the Request body, an error is returned.
