FAQ - Creating and exporting Logistic Advanced Payment

1 - Introduction

This document is a complement to the article: Records - Routes

The routes register has an option of advanced payment, when choosing this option the user can inform an amount of money. When the logistic needs for training and schedule participants is created automatically, if it is identified that the route uses advanced payment, the logistic need will not be generated and the amount will be attached to the worker and the information be exported afterwards.

The bank account record is updated with two new fields, Card holder’s name and ID, and a checkbox where can be selected to “Use as standard for refunds“. When a path is created, in the moment the logistic schedule is generated automatically, the system will check if the worker has a bank account registered and will associate this account to them.

The worker must have their bank accounts registered and one of them must be defined as the main account, if this does not happen will be possible to include this information during the process, but may take longer to operate. Make sure to maintain the workers information complete and updated.

5 - Understanding Paths Logistics

A path is made with many routes. The displacement of a worker from their house to the workplace is called Path. To ensure this path to happens, the worker must leave the residence and go to the bus terminal or airport and travel to other region and then to the workplace. In this travel, 3 routes were accomplished: Home → Bus Terminal or Airport (A) / Bus Terminal or Airport (A) → Bus Terminal or Airport (B) / Bus Terminal or Airport (B) → Workplace

 


6 - Changing a Path

When informing the place of work or training for a worker, DRAKE will generate a path. Automatically this path will be filled with the routes registered previously, however, on some cases it will need further information that will be filled manually.

6.1 To access the Paths, go to: Records > Logistics > Paths

6.2 Notice the column “Status”. When the path needs more information, will be as “Missing“ . In this case, click above the worker and the path will be changed manually. The window below will be displayed.

 

6.3 Select the tab “Going” or “Return“, as necessary. On both cases the template is similar, the difference will be the reversed route. On the tab “Going” may be missing some information to complete the path and in this case the user adds an “Advance”. However, click on “Add” to include a new route.

 

6.4 A new window will open. There is allowed to include any registered routes, as displayed on item 3. To add an Advance, the “Type” must be defined as “Advance”.

6.5 Select the advanced payment and click on “Save and Close”.

6.6 A new route is now added to the worker.

6.7 Usually the worker will need to make the reverse path to go back home. On the tab “Return”, select “Reverse” and DRAKE will fill the reverse path automatically. If a new return is needed to register, add or delete as prefer.

 

 

6.8 If the information is complete, click on the tab “Main”, select the button “Status” and change the information to “Complete“.

6.9 Click on “Save and Close“. Now the path is complete and ready to generate a new logistic need to this worker.
