Paying interpreters: periods and statements

Every pay period, and what each interpreter is owed in it.

1. Pay lists your pay periods, each with how many interpreters and jobs it holds, the total, and the payday.
2. A period counts a job by the date of the appointment, not the day you got round to completing it, so work lands in the period it happened in.
3. Completed jobs count, and so do consumer no-shows, because the interpreter still turned up.
4. If any job in the period has no pay set, the period says so. Fix those rates before you pay anyone, or someone gets a statement that is short.
5. Open a period to see each interpreter, their job count and their total, and open one person to see the jobs behind their number.
6. Generating statements makes one per interpreter, listing the appointments behind their total. The numbers are frozen at that moment, so editing a job later never quietly changes what someone was told they were owed.
7. Send one, or send every draft at once. With emailing off, sending marks it sent and the interpreter sees it in their portal.
8. When the money has moved, mark it paid with a reference. IMP is the record of what is owed; the money itself moves through your own accounting.
9. Export the period as a spreadsheet for entering bills in QuickBooks.
10. Closing a period stops it changing. You can reopen it when a late edit turns up, and IMP records that you did.
