Select Reports | Vendor Statements from the Main Menu. Select a vendor (contractor). The grid in the window will show all load entries (including the activity, pay basis, pay rate and weight) and pay for a given contractor. For a 'Load Revenue' contract, the load revenue is shown, as well as the contract percentage that is applied. Use this grid to ensure that all entries are paid at the correct rate. Once you have verified that the pay is correct you can run formatted pay statements by clicking on the 'View Statements' button.

The activity column specifies the activity that is paid. If the activity was 'TRUCKING' instead of 'HARVEST,' you would see 'TRUCKING' in the activity column.
The
statement above does not show the actual load revenue.
Instead, the revenue is replaced by the implied pay rate on the same basis as the revenue
contract. For example, if the revenue rate is $45.00/Ton and the
pay-by-load-percent is 20%, the statement shows a pay rate of $9.00 (=$45.00 x
.20) and the basis is the Tons for the load.
The formatted vendor statement can be used to distribute to your contractors as supporting detail, along with their payment.
The formatted statement is in two parts: the first part is a summary of the vendor pay; the second part is a detailed load-by-load listing. You can use one or both parts to distribute to your vendors depending on your business preference. One of the really cool things about the formatted statements is that they can be saved as '.PDF' files and e-mailed to vendors instead of being printed and mailed.
Part 1 shows a summary of the pay for the contractor.

The second part of the statement shows a load-by-load listing of loads paid.
As
noted above, The statement does not show the load revenue. Instead, the
revenue is replaced by the implied pay rate on the same basis as the revenue
contract.
Part 2 of the statement can be configured so the columns (and their headings) are the ones you want, and appear in the order you want. For example, if you wanted the destination to be the fourth column with a heading of 'Mill,' you can easily configure your statement to do that (see Configuring Statements). Also, you can control the use of subtotals -- you can subtotal across any columns (multiple columns if desired) that appear in the statement.
The activity specifies the activity that is paid. If the activity was 'TRUCKING' instead of 'HARVEST,' you would see 'TRUCKING' for the activity.

In the case of 'TRUCKING,' The Logger's Edge may add an asterisk (*) to the 'Ticket' in the first column -- e.g., '6889 *'. This asterisk is used to identify trucks that carried 'overweight' loads. The asterisk will only appear for those users for which the truck overload functionality has been enabled. See How To: Manage Overloads.
