Carrier fees and settings

Full transcript

In this tutorial, you'll configure carrier fees in Loads Hub.

Start with the carrier company's name and the dispatch fee you've agreed with them.

Open Receivables from the sidebar, then select Carrier Rates.

The Carrier Pay Rates window is where you configure the percentage your business keeps from each load.

Check the Missing Pay Rates notice.

Carriers without a configured rate default to ten percent.

Confirm the agreement for each carrier instead of assuming the default is correct.

Under Configured Rates, select Add Carrier.

Enter the carrier company's name carefully.

Here, Example Carrier LLC is an illustrative name for the demonstration.

In Your Cut, enter your agreed dispatch fee percentage.

We'll use eight percent as an example.

Review the company and percentage, then select Add Rate when you're ready to save.

The fee is calculated from the full load amount.

On a one thousand dollar load, eight percent is eighty dollars.

This is your carrier dispatch fee; dispatcher pay is configured separately in Payables.

Configured Rates shows each company's Your Cut, Driver Gets, and Effective Date.

The pencil icon opens the percentage field for an existing entry.

Check the company and agreed rate before making changes.

Before you finish, confirm the carrier name, agreed percentage, and any missing rates still using the default.

Next, we'll set up trucks and drivers.
