Multi-step Payment Approvals ✅
Managers can now approve payment requests while a separate team member initiates the payments. This feature is ideal for workflows in which one or more managers need to only approve a payment (e.g. to confirm that a requested amount is correct), while another user, such as a Finance team member, separately schedules payments for the approved requests.To review and approve a payment request:
- In your Pilot account, go to the Pay contractors tab and select ‘View payment requests.’ All people who have reviewed and approved a request will be shown in the Approved by section.
- Select ‘Review’ next to the payment request that you’d like to review.
- Click the ‘Approve’ button to approve the request. To reject the request, click ‘Reject this request’ and add a note about the reason for the rejection.
