Amazon Relay
Amazon Relay settlements, done right — every trip, every driver, every week.
What is Amazon Relay?
The Amazon Relay module settles your Amazon Relay drivers week after week without spreadsheets. Import the week's trips from a CSV — drivers are created automatically — and the module calculates Amazon's payout, your commission, weekly insurance deductions and each driver's net pay. Rejected loads stay visible at $0.00 in red so nothing is forgotten, payments are recorded against settlements, and the ledger keeps the full history.
What it does
CSV trip import
Drop in the week's Amazon Relay settlement CSV and every trip lands in the right week — drivers are created automatically from the import, never typed in by hand. Trips can also be added manually. Import history is kept with automatic column detection.
Weekly settlement cycle
Trips group into weekly settlement periods with their own invoice dates. Open a week to see every trip, amount and deduction in one place.
Live auto-calculation
Your commission percentage and the weekly insurance deduction apply automatically per driver. Figures recalculate live as you type — no stale numbers, ever.
Rejected loads never disappear
When Amazon rejects a load — a whole block or a blank block ID — those trips stay on the settlement at $0.00 in red, with color-coded rejection reasons, so they're chased, not forgotten.
Move trips between weeks
A trip landed in the wrong week? Move it per-trip to the correct settlement in one click — amounts and totals follow it automatically. Or tick trips and add selected (or all) to a chosen week in one step.
Payments & ledger
Record payouts against finalized settlements. A payment can be deleted cleanly — the settlement returns to draft and leaves the ledger. The ledger holds every settlement and payment with printable layouts, per driver and per week.
Insurance tracking
Add insurance top-ups any time — new total = remaining balance + new amount. History shows as a dated timeline. No insurance on file? Every insurance figure shows "—" instead of a misleading balance.
Documents & invoices
Driver-linked documents plus company-level documents — Agreement, Insurance, Termination letter, Drug Test, Tax Docs — stored with the settlement data. A standalone invoices list: view, print, edit or delete any invoice.
Using it, step by step
1. Import the week's trips
Download the settlement CSV from Amazon Relay and import it. One CSV per week; trips land in the matching settlement period, drivers auto-created.
2. Review trips & rejections
Open the week and scan the trip list. Rejected loads show at $0.00 in red with color-coded reasons. Move any trip to the correct week with one click.
3. Set commission & insurance
Confirm the week's commission percentage and weekly insurance deduction per driver, and stamp the settlement with its invoice date.
4. Finalize the settlement
When the numbers look right, finalize the week. Finalized settlements lock the figures and post to the driver ledger.
5. Pay your drivers
Record each driver's payout against the finalized settlement — net pay per driver calculated automatically, full per-driver payment history.
6. Ledger, reports & print
Complete settlement and payment history per driver, print-friendly layouts, and exports for your accountant.
Frequently asked questions
How are drivers added?
You never add them manually — drivers are created automatically the first time their name appears in a CSV import.
What happens to rejected trips?
Rejected trips stay on the settlement at $0.00 in red with a color-coded rejection reason, acting as reminders until resolved instead of silently vanishing.
Can I move a trip to another week?
Yes — every trip has a Move action that shifts it to the correct weekly settlement, with all amounts and totals following it.
What if I record a wrong payment?
Delete the payment: the settlement returns to draft status and the entry is removed from the ledger. Nothing is left half-recorded.
Does it handle multiple drivers?
Yes — settlements, payments and the ledger are all per-driver, so any number of drivers can be settled side by side each week.
How is net pay calculated?
Amazon's trip payout minus your commission percentage, minus the weekly insurance deduction. Every figure recalculates live as you work.
