What a scheduled charge is
A scheduled charge creates one manual order each month for a vendor. Use it for rent, a booth fee, or another amount you already know. The generated order shows on Orders, reports, and payouts. It does not sync to Shopify.
Create one
- Open Orders.
- Open the Scheduled charges tab.
- Click Add scheduled charge.
- The heading is Add Scheduled Charge. Choose a Vendor, or All active vendors to make one charge per vendor who is active when you save.
- Fill in Order ID / Name, Product, Price, Vendor Payout, and Profit. SKU is optional.
- Set Day of month (1 through 28), Starts on, and an optional Ends on.
- Leave Active checked and click Save Scheduled Charge.
For a fee that lowers what you owe the vendor, enter a negative Vendor Payout.
After it is saved
VendorPayout checks active charges daily and creates the manual order once for that month. On the list, each row has Edit, History, and Pause (or Resume if it is paused). Edits apply to future months. Orders already created stay on the Orders page.
Vendors you add later are not added to an All active vendors charge. Create another charge for them.
