When a driver swap (slip seat) or trailer swap (relay) is executed EKA calculates an initial load revenue allocation to the resulting leg loads.
- That allocation is based on the ratio of the individual leg miles to the routed total leg miles.
- The allocation does not include Deadhead miles to or from the swap point.
- This allocation is also applied to driver payment and contractor settlement.
- These amounts can be adjusted manually in the modal to adjust for your planned allocation
- The split of load revenue may be adjusted using the “Allocate” function, but this may require that you calculate the Carrier miles after adding swap points
- Settlements and payments should be confirmed and adjusted if necessary in the Delivered load Trip Details
For example:
Load A pays $4000 for an 800 mile load.
Leg Load B: Truck 1, a company driver earning $0.60 / mile at the Linehaul rate and $0.50 / mile at the Empty rate, picks up and takes the load 250 miles to a swap point.
Leg Load C: Truck 2, a contractor earning 80% drives 750 miles and completes delivery so the total route was 1000 miles.
Truck 1 trip revenue allocation is $4000* (250/1000) = $1000 and the driver payment is calculated as $0.60 * 250 = $150. (If there was a Deadhead Load D: 250 mile Deadhead the driver would separately be owed 250 miles at the $0.50 Empty rate or $125)
Truck 2 trip revenue allocation is $4000 * (750/1000) = $3000 and the contractor settlement is calculated as $3000 * 80% = $2400
