Below are common reasons why a payment is not available for release. You may also refer to Payee Payments > Release Payments > Not Ready for Release > Reason for specific information related to your payment. Here are a few of the most common reasons:

  • The vendor hasn't been onboarded into Automate Payments as a valid payee

    • Transactions will only flow to Automate for vendors that have been onboarded as a Payee. Follow the to invite your payee and add and approve a payment method.

  • The GL account on the bill payment is not linked to a funding source within Automate

    • To resolve this, please follow the steps to link bank accounts. Then, void and re-create your bill payment.

  • The payee has not completed the invite to provide payment information or you have not approved the supplied payment method.

    • Review the Payee and re-send the invite to remind the Payee to complete their information or approve the payment method provided

  • The payment is over the maximum allowed amount.

    • Currently payments are limited to $500,000. If you need to pay a payee more than the maximum allowed amount, you can split into separate bill payments.

  • The payment is not in a supported currency

    • Currently all payments must be in US Dollar.
