Option

Description

No Commissions

The default option is to not include commissions in costing.

Non-Sales Commissions

Include commissions created for drivers, coordinators, and other non-salespeople in costing. These people are identified as having a commission on a Labor Type other than “Sales”, such as “Coor”, “% Comp Driver”, etc.

These items show under the Expense Category of “Commissions” along with the name of the user and their roles shown as the Expense Type, e.g., “Sally Brown (Coor).”

All Commissions

Include all commissions created on the order in costing. This includes commissions associated with any Labor Type, including “Sales.”

These items show under the Expense Category of “Commissions” along with “Commission – “ followed by the name of the user and their roles shown as the Expense Type, e.g., “Commission – Heather Cahill (Sales).”

Checking this option instructs the application to include all revenue payables in costing. These are created through the Add Third Party Item (Revenue Entry) dialog (Add Item > Third Party through the Transactions tab).

These items show under an Expense Category of “Third Party Payables” along with “3rd Party – “ followed by the name of the vendor as the Expense Type.

 

NOTE:

If you record these payables now using Third Party Services (available through the Billing Information tab), you may need to evaluate which option you choose for costing: Either utilize Third Party Payable or Third Party Services, since they both factoring into costing. Third Party Payables associate to revenue whereas Third Party Services do not. Refer to Third Party Services and Add Third Party Item (Revenue Entry) for details on each.

 

Change Summary

MSCrew

 

Updates within MSCrew within the two versions are as follows:  

 

The latest iOS version is MSCrew iOS 2.16 and the updates for that version are:

 

The Punch IN/Out process has been updated to be more efficient and reduce errors. If the “Is Crew Time Locked” flag is set and crew presses “Punch In” or “Punch Out,” a confirmation message appears. The confirmation message reads: Do you wish to punch in (or out) from this service?” Clicking Yes or No makes sure the request is completed.

 

When the ability to delete a punch was added to the MoversSuite desktop side, refreshes started from the Jobs tab were not removing deleted punch(es) from the job. For example, if there are two punches on a job and one is deleted, two were still showing on the job. With this fix, refreshes from Jobs will remove deleted punches. Deleted punches will also be removed when you log out and then log back in.

 

Names are no longer being cutoff when assigning through Assigned Crew.

The latest version for Android is MSCrew Android 2.3 and the updates for that version are:

 

Names of temporary worker(s) are now showing on Job Summary. Previously, temporary workers had a “-“ listing, instead of their name(s).
