Add a Line Item - Bill by Cubic Yard with One Ticket per Day in the TruckIT Portal

Count the Loads and let the truck volume capacity calculate the cubic yards, so there's one ticket per day and nothing for drivers to enter.

TruckIT · Projects & Sites TruckIT
How It Works
Use this setup when you bill by the cubic yard, but every load is already a known size, so there’s no need for the driver to enter cubic yards.
TruckIT counts the loads and works out the cubic yards from each truck’s Volume Capacity. For example, if a truck’s volume capacity is 20 cubic yards, each load it runs counts as 20 cubic yards. The driver gets one ticket per day and only takes one TicPic, when the job closes.
Set Up the Line Item
1. Add a line item. Go to Projects and Sites, select your project, and click Add Line Item.
2. Choose the payload and truck types. Add a Label if you’d like, then select the Payload and the Truck Types that will run the job. Every truck you plan to dispatch needs a Volume Capacity — you can check this under My Company › My Fleet.
3. Enter the cubic yard rate. Enter the Customer Rate and set its unit of measure to Cubic Yard. Add a driver or hauler rate if you use one.
4. Set the quantity to Load. Enter a quantity or click Unlimited, then set the quantity Unit of measure to Load. It switches to Cubic Yard when you pick the cubic yard rate, so make sure you change it back.
5. Turn off driver quantity entry. Set Input Mode to Do not ask driver to fill in quantity.
6. Ask for one TicPic per day. Set TicPic required to On job closure only.
7. Add the sites and save. Select the Pick-Up Site and Drop-Off Site(s), then click Save.

What Happens Next
For the driver. No quantity to enter and no TicPic per load — just one TicPic when the job closes for the day.
For the dispatcher. The ticket shows the load count with the cubic yard total in parentheses, and it’s billed at your cubic yard rate.
Tip: keep each truck’s Volume Capacity up to date. The cubic yard total on the ticket, and the amount billed, both come from that number.
