Drivers and tours
Note: the DevyPOS interface is currently available in German and English. Screen labels quoted here are the English ones.
Who is out, with which orders and with how much cash? The driver area answers exactly these three questions.
1. Creating drivers
Drivers are staff members with the role driver. On the staff record you also store:
- the hourly rate for the wage calculation,
- travel costs as an amount per trip or per kilometre.
2. Starting a tour
- Open Drivers in the header. All finished orders are listed under open deliveries.
- Tap the orders that will be driven together.
- Start tour – the driver counts as on the road and the number of stops is shown next to it.
Orders already paid online are marked as paid: the driver does not have to collect any money for them.
3. Settling
When the driver returns, Settle opens the driver settlement:
- Cash due – what was taken in on the deliveries.
- Handed over – what is actually handed in.
- Working time from/to – DevyPOS turns it into decimal hours and multiplies it by the hourly rate.
- Travel costs according to the method you set.
At the end you see whether the employee has to pay something in or receives something. The matching receipt has a signature line.
Do not forget: settle first, close the day afterwards. A driver who has not been settled appears in the finance report as money still on the road – and the till appears not to add up.
