In a more helpful post I suggest taking a look at these articles:
Your question is falling more towards legal advice.

Legal Myths, Part II: Does a Carrier Have to Show Driver Load Confirmation Sheets? — Truckers Justice Center

 

I hope it helps...

If you believe there is a discrepancy in your pay I strongly recommend you speak with a trucking lawyer. You will gain accurate knowledge to your concerns and a plan to proceed.

 

Start your own trucking company then you get to see everything.

 

Ive said this a million times. NEVER work with any company that does not show you rate cons. Theres only ONE reason for that. They're hiding the numbers and skimming money off the top. Then they take the other 35% out of whats left. Ill guarantee they've done this on every load you've hauled for them. I cant even go down the rabbit hole on how bad 65% of the revenue is. My advise get away from whoever these people are they're robbing you blind.

 

As an employee or contractor paid % you are legally entitled to see the original invoice or a copy there of... But it is up to you to request it in a timely manner (that 180 days you mentioned).

I personally know several guys paid percentage and you are absolutely entitled to see thise invoices... I would randomly request 1 or 2 each month as a spot check.

 

The article is misleading and wrong. In fact, there is a problem with using a term “load confirmation” that does not even apply to the regulations.

A load confirmation sheet is a confirmation of an agreement between two or three parties, not a freight bill.

The freight bill is what matters.

The lawyer or legal aid who wrote the article doesn’t know the difference and adding wrong information in the article based on a false premise of a settlement.

FMCSA 376.11 (g) Copies of freight bill or other form of freight documentation. When a lessor's revenue is based on a percentage of the gross revenue for a shipment, the lease must specify that the authorized carrier will give the lessor, before or at the time of settlement, a copy of the rated freight bill, or, in the case of contract carriers [dedicated contracted freight], any other form of documentation actually used for a shipment containing the same information that would appear on a rated freight bill. Regardless of the method of compensation, the lease must permit lessor to examine copies of the carrier's tariff or, in the case of contract carriers, other documents from which rates and charges are computed, provided that where rates and charges are computed from a contract of a contract carrier, only those portions of the contract containing the same information that would appear on a rated freight bill need be disclosed. The authorized carrier may delete the names of shippers and consignees shown on the freight bill or other form of documentation.

Looking at the article ... “you are entitled either to receive a copy of the invoice given to customers (referred to in the regulations as the “rated freight bill”), or instead to receive a computer-generated settlement document containing the same information contained on a rated freight bill.”

there is no either in both the regs and legal rulings, it is the freight bill to be invoiced to the consignee.
