What happens next

Once a disbursement is canceled, the following is updated:

  • The status of the payout shows as "canceled" in the disbursements report
  • The status of transactions in the payout will change to "unpaid" in the ledger balances reports
  • The actual payout transaction will be reversed in the posting journal

If needed, create a new disbursement / payout under the General Ledger Balances report.
