Reconciling a Previous Payment

Because earnings can be retroactively restated by using the calculation run Replace feature, payments released in the past may appear to be based on incorrectly calculated balances. To understand why a payment amount was computed at a specific time, users can review a historical snapshot of the user's balance details when the payment was made.

  2. In the Participants list, select a participant record and drill down on the hyperlink in the Balance field.
  3. The Earnings and Released Payment lists appear.

  4. In the Released Payment list, select a payment and then drill down on the hyperlink in the Released Amount field.

    NOTE:  Fewer payments may appear, and the list of earnings may differ from the most recent list because some calculation runs are replaced.
