Field Descriptions

  • Total Amount
    ➤ The full amount you want to withhold from the driver's earnings (e.g., $1,000 total).

  • Prev Charged
    ➤ Amount already charged or deducted before this current setup (if any).

  • Split Into
    ➤ Number of payments (deduction periods). Example: if total is $1,000 and split into 10, then $100/week will be deducted.

  • Balance Amount
    ➤ Shows what’s currently in the fund. Starts at $0 until deductions begin.

The Depository Fund lets you withhold a fixed amount from a driver's pay over time as a security reserve. It’s split across paychecks and refunded after termination (e.g., after 40 days).

Charging Summary

  • Next Charge from Paycheck (in red)
    ➤ The amount that will be deducted in the upcoming payroll cycle.

  • Already Charged Amount (in green)
    ➤ Total that has been collected so far.

  • Remaining Balance (in blue)
    ➤ What’s left to collect (Total Amount - Already Charged).
