When Pay a review bonus is on (Settings › Reputation › Competition & bonus), you don't print slips or type anything: MoveBoard puts the bonus into payroll by itself.
One line per person per pay period
Each person's review bonuses of a pay period are one line on their statement in Accounting › Payroll, dated the period's last day: "Review bonuses", for the sum of every review that pays them in the period. Its notes list each review in date order, with the day and the customer:
> Review bonuses — 3 × 5★ Google reviews: > Oct 18, 2026 — Mike D. > Oct 22, 2026 — Sarah K. > Oct 29, 2026 — John P.
A review with a photo, or one shared with the crew, says so on its own row ("with a photo; split 3 ways"). Reviews of different stars or sites each say theirs. Open the line in payroll to read the whole list (40 reviews in a busy fortnight still fit).
A place prize is its own line: "Review bonus — 1st place, Oct 1–15, 2026". Who gets a line is your Who gets the bonus setting: the foreman, the foreman and movers responsible for the review, or the movers only — each the full amount, or their share of it. The periods are the ones you chose in Settings (twice a month, monthly, weekly or every two weeks).
It follows the reviews
The line appears with the person's first review that pays in the period and is kept up to date within minutes: a new review raises the amount and adds its row, a review the site removes during the period comes off. It stays the same line — never a second one. If every review comes off, the line stays at $0.00 and says so.
3 days after the period ends (late reviews have come in, a removed one has been confirmed) the place prizes go in, and the period is final. Bonus payouts (Reputation › Competition) shows each person's line as In payroll · updating while the period runs, then In payroll.
If you change the line
Change the amount or the words of a "Review bonuses" line in payroll, or delete it, and MoveBoard keeps exactly what you did: the line no longer updates by itself. Bonus payouts shows that person as Changed by hand, with a note. A line that is on a paycheck is paid and never changes again either.
Reviews removed later
A review that already paid and is then removed by the site is taken back from everyone it paid, for exactly what it paid them:
- if their "Review bonuses" line is not paid yet and you didn't change it, the review simply comes off that line (amount and list);
- otherwise — the line was paid or changed by hand — a negative line "Review clawback — Oct 3, 2026 review", dated the day it is taken back.
Place prizes are not taken back. Each review is taken back once. Turn Take back removed reviews off to keep paying them.
On Reputation › Competition › Filtered each person a removed review paid has a card with two boxes:
- Deduct from current bonus: on, his removed reviews are taken back in payroll (within minutes); off, they wait. Untouched, it follows Take back removed reviews.
- Money recovered: you got the money back another way (cash, a check). His paid, not yet taken back removed reviews are marked recovered and are never taken back in payroll. Untick to undo (a line payroll already made stays in payroll).
Report prints the Review Bonus Adjustment Notice for the crew leader to sign. A removed review whose period isn't final yet simply doesn't count. The table at the bottom shows each one's status: Recovered, Outstanding or Not paid yet.
Lines made before Nov 5, 2026
Until Nov 5, 2026 each review was its own "Review bonus — 5★ Google review from …" line. In the recent pay periods, a person's separate lines became one "Review bonuses" line by themselves — only when none of them was on a paycheck or changed by hand. The person's Logs (Team › the person › Logs) say which lines became which. Lines that were paid or changed stay exactly as they were.
Payout slips
You don't need them — but Bonus payouts still prints payout slips (four to a page) and a payout CSV.
Each period keeps its rules
Changing the amounts applies from the current pay period on; a new pay period schedule starts the day after the current period ends. Earlier periods are paid — and taken back — by the rules and dates they had.
