Move a Payout to Next State🔗

By default, Payouts created in the Test Mode acquire the processing state. However, if you do not have sufficient balance, the payout acquires the queued state. In this case, add funds to move the payout to the processing state.

From the processing state, you will have to manually move the payout to the next state from the Dashboard. You can move it forward to any state in the payout lifecycle. Unlike the Live Mode, this does not happen automatically.
