# 10. Payouts to Nurses
|
||||
|
||||
[← Business Requirements](index.md)
|
||||
|
||||
## (a) Business requirements
|
||||
- Nurses are paid in **weekly batches**. A batch aggregates the amounts owed for completed, payout-eligible bookings/sessions and produces one payout per nurse with earnings in that window.
|
||||
- **Payout eligibility is gated on EVV completion AND a closed dispute window.** A booking/session enters a batch only when `status = 'completed'` AND `dispute_window_ends_at < now()` (the dispute window is config-driven, default 72h post-completion). This deliberately prevents paying a nurse before a dispute can surface, shrinking clawback frequency — important because an Iranian bank transfer, once sent, is effectively irreversible.
|
||||
- The nurse payout amount derives from `gross_price_irr − balinyaar_commission_irr` (never from a BNPL provider's net settlement).
|
||||
- **Clawbacks** (`nurse_clawbacks`) handle the refund-after-payout case: if a booking is refunded/disputed **after** the nurse was already paid, a clawback receivable is recorded (negative ledger entry against the nurse) and recovered by **netting against the nurse's next weekly batch**, or written off if uncollectable. The nurse's payable balance is **derived from the ledger** (it may go negative), and a batch can net prior clawbacks (`gross_earnings`, `clawback_applied`, `net_amount`).
|
||||
- **Each booking is paid at most once** (the payout↔booking link is unique), preventing double-pay across batches.
|
||||
- **Bank-holiday-aware scheduling.** Payout period-end and processing dates are shifted off bank-closed days using a shared `iranian_holidays` calendar — a weekly payout landing on a multi-day Nowruz closure would otherwise fail, since PAYA/SATNA transfers do not settle on closed days.
|
||||
- Payouts go to the nurse's **verified, registered primary IBAN**, with the IBAN snapshotted and a transfer reference stored for reconciliation. Each payout item carries a unique track id + (for batches) a batch id.
|
||||
|
||||
## (b) Iran-specific considerations
|
||||
- Payouts are **real bank transfers to registered IBANs** (PAYA/SATNA cycles, next-business-day on holidays) — there is no chargeback-style reversal, which is *why* the dispute window must close before payout and why clawback is a netting/receivable mechanism rather than an automatic reversal.
|
||||
- Provider settlement cut-offs (Toman/Jibit) mean payout must tolerate a provider being unavailable mid-cycle; the batch + reconciliation references survive a swap.
|
||||
- Each nurse must have a Shahkar/KYC-verified, IBAN-ownership-checked account registered as a beneficiary before any payout targets it.
|
||||
|
||||
## (c) MVP vs DEFERRED
|
||||
- **MVP:** weekly batches; EVV + dispute-window gating; per-session accrual for engagements; `nurse_clawbacks` with next-batch netting and write-off; unique booking↔payout link; `iranian_holidays`-aware scheduling; verified-IBAN payouts with reconciliation references.
|
||||
- **DEFERRED:** on-demand / instant nurse withdrawal; per-nurse configurable payout frequency; automated clawback recovery beyond netting.
|
||||
|
||||
## (d1) Rules confirmed in build (backend b13)
|
||||
These fill gaps the requirements left open; the payout engine was built to them:
|
||||
- **Clawback netting recovers *whole* clawbacks up to a batch's earnings.** A `nurse_clawbacks` row is atomic —
|
||||
it is recovered in full or not at all — so a batch nets the largest set of whole pending clawbacks (oldest first)
|
||||
that fits within the nurse's earnings that week; `net_amount = gross_earnings − clawback_applied ≥ 0` (never
|
||||
negative). A single clawback **larger than a batch's earnings** stays fully `pending` and recovers from a later,
|
||||
larger batch (it is not partially recovered). The recovery is a real ledger movement (`DEBIT nurse_payable /
|
||||
CREDIT nurse_clawback_receivable`), not just a status flag, so the derived balances reconcile.
|
||||
- **A booking with an active (non-failed/-rejected) refund is held out of payout batches** — its money was (partly)
|
||||
reversed, so paying its frozen `nurse_payout_amount` would overpay. It is excluded until resolved (this is the
|
||||
operational reading of "no open dispute", since there is no separate dispute table yet).
|
||||
- **PAYA vs SATNA** is chosen per payout by the `payout_satna_threshold_irr` config (SATNA for net amounts at/above
|
||||
the threshold, else PAYA).
|
||||
- **Optional BNPL settlement gate:** `require_bnpl_settlement_for_payout` (config, **default off**) — when on, a
|
||||
BNPL-paid booking is payout-eligible only once its provider settlement (`settled_at`) is received.
|
||||
- The weekly **cron trigger is DEFERRED** — batches are admin-triggered; the cadence lives in
|
||||
`nurse_payout_interval_days` (default 7) for the future scheduler.
|
||||
|
||||
## (d) Supporting database entities
|
||||
`nurse_payout_batches`, `nurse_payouts` (with `gross_earnings_irr`, `clawback_applied_irr`, `net_amount_irr`, `iban_snapshot`), `nurse_payout_booking_links` (unique per booking), **`nurse_clawbacks`**, `ledger_entries`, **`iranian_holidays`**, `bookings.dispute_window_ends_at`, `nurse_bank_accounts`.
