The consignment system lets you manage vehicles owned by third parties. Add vehicle owners to track who owns what and calculate payout splits.
How to Add an Owner
- Go to the vehicle's detail page
- Navigate to the Consignment or Ownership section
- Click Add Owner
- Select a contact from your CRM (or create a new contact)
- Set the owner's commission split (percentage they earn from rentals)
- Save
How Consignment Splits Work
When a consignment vehicle is rented, the revenue is split between you and the owner based on the configured percentage. For example:
- Owner gets 70%, you keep 30%
- On a $1,000 rental: owner earns $700, you earn $300
These splits are tracked automatically and appear in owner payout reports.
Removing an Owner
- Go to the vehicle's consignment section
- Click Remove next to the owner
- Confirm
Removing an owner does not affect past rental records or payout history — only future rentals.
