The company account and bank
ETS2 + ATS
The company account: who sees it, what goes in and out, investments, company loan, account plan and bonuses – shared by both worlds.
On this page7
Every company has a company account – a bank account of its own, separate from its drivers' accounts. You find it on the "Bank" page in the card "Company account".
One account for both worlds#
The bank is not split. There is one company account for ETS2 and ATS, kept in euros – just like your own bank account. What your drivers earn in ATS is booked in euros at the weekly rate. Jobs, yards, vehicles and statistics, however, are kept separately per world.
Who sees the company account#
Only people with the right in your company ("See company account") – and of course the owner – see the company account. A solo driver has no company account.
The card shows:
- the company balance, the overdraft limit (company) and what is still free
- the interest rate on a negative company balance and what has accrued since the last monthly closing
- what the whole company has driven (km, jobs, hours)
What goes in and what goes out#
| In | Out |
|---|---|
| the revenue of jobs your drivers drive for the company | trip pay and the drivers' wages |
| the market bonus from the freight market ("The market bonus goes into your company's cash account.") | diesel, tolls, ferries and car trains of the employed drivers |
| the sale of company vehicles | rentals, repairs, buildings, staff (mechanics, workshop managers) |
| interest and closed investments | bonuses, loan instalments, account fees, taxes |
Investing for the company#
Under "Investment" tick "Invest for the company". The money then comes from the company account and goes back there when the investment is closed – not to your own account. The company's investments appear on the right of the card. This needs the right "Open and close a company deposit".
Company loan#
"Company loan" shows limit, instalment, balance and collateral of all the company's loans. Whoever holds the right "Loans" may take out and repay. The bank reports an open instalment in the mailbox. For founding itself there is a founder's loan – the bank tells you whether it is possible for you.
Company account plan#
The company account has an account plan (tariff) too. The card for the company's account plan shows the tariffs with base price and price per booking and what you will probably pay this month. The choice applies to the whole company; whoever holds "Change the company account plan" may change it.
Transfers and bonuses#
- Transfers and standing orders of the company go through the company's account – with the rights "Company transfer" and "Company standing order".
- "Bonus for the crew": an amount per driver to every driver in the company, with the reason on their statement. You, as the one paying, do not receive one. There is no undo.
Large amounts may need a second signature – see four-eyes approval.
