Tips   Hold and release payment requests

You can also hold or release pending payment requests that you have displayed by clicking Payments in the Explore section of the Navigation Panel. Alternatively, you can hold or release a payment request by clicking Hold or Release while reviewing the payment request details.

Other authorized users will see your comments.

If you release a payment request after its pay date, its status will remain Scheduling until the next time the ProcessPendingPaymentRequests scheduled task is run. At that point, its status changes to Scheduled and, when the Payment Aggregator scheduled task is run, it is consolidated with other payment requests for the same supplier.into a payment transaction (PMT) document. Note that if the payment request contains invalid data or fields, it will not be scheduled for payment.

If available, click the Table Options icon, located in the row above the column headers, to display commands that control the display of data in the table. For example, you can hide or show columns of data; group data; or export data to Excel.
