Understanding the Staff Pay Report

Modified on Sun, 06 Aug 2023 at 06:19 PM

The Staff Pay Report provides a summary of payments owed to sitters for work that is paid on a "per service" basis. The report also provides detailed service information for each employee or contractor and can also be filtered by staff member. Staff pay is calculated based on service delivery date.

Similar to other reports, direct access to a Client Account is available by clicking on the blue Client Name once you have drilled down into a Staff Name, also in blue. 


In addition, appended to each Staff Pay Report are statistics which many business owners will find very helpful when compiling KPIs and appraisals. These statistics include:

  • Number of days worked
  • Scheduled Services
  • Cancelled
  • Voided
  • Total Services
  • Total Pay


Tip: The Staff Pay Report helps you plan for payments to staff and aids in cash flow management. It also gives you the Cost of Goods Sold (COGS) for any date range and provides key insights for understanding your profit margin on various services provided by various staff members.


Note: If you pay staff on an hourly basis, use Shifts for time recording and Timecard Export for calculating staff pay.
