Payment approval queue

Period end

Situation

Several payout requests (including employee payouts) are waiting.

Recommendation

Work them in the payment approval queue in Finance; creators can withdraw.

Why

All payout sources (Payments, advance payouts, employee settlement payouts) go through the same gate; the queue lives in Finance next to Payments. Creators can withdraw without approval rights; approve/reject needs payments:approve.

Steps

  1. Open the payment approval queue.
  2. Review source and amount.
  3. Approve or reject with a reason.
  4. Creators withdraw requests made in error.

Avoid

  • Pay first and create the request afterwards.

Roles & permissions

Approver with payments:approve; request creator.
