Every payroll run has a detail page at /employer/pay/runs/:id. This is where you review the run, approve it, pay it, and track it through to completion.

Getting There

Open Pay to reach the Payroll dashboard, then:
  • Click any run in the Recent Payroll Runs table, or
  • Click View History and select a run from Payroll History.
You also land here automatically right after creating a run. At the top of the page you will see:
  • Run name: For example “March 2026 Payroll”. Click the pencil icon to rename it. This is handy for distinguishing regular runs from off-cycle or correction runs.
  • Status badge: A color-coded indicator of the run’s current status. See Payroll Statuses Explained.
  • Action buttons: Which buttons appear depends on the status (see below).

Available actions by status

Edit Payroll appears for a Draft or Pending Approval run. Approve appears only for a Pending Approval run and moves it to Approved. Approve & Pay (US) or Approve & Generate Invoice (other countries) appears for an Approved or Draft run and starts the payment. Cancel stays available at every stage except Completed, Cancelled, and the brief Processing state, and it asks for an optional reason and cannot be undone. Once your funds have been received, coordinate any cancellation with support.

After you approve and pay

The primary button reads Approve & Pay when your billing country is the US and Approve & Generate Invoice otherwise (the billing country defaults to United States). After you confirm:
  • US: a green Payment initiated successfully banner appears: “Your ACH bank transfer is being processed. This typically takes 1-3 business days.”
  • Other countries: a green Payroll approved, invoice generated banner appears and points you to the Finance page to pay the invoice by bank transfer.

Draft runs

If the run is a draft, a banner reminds you to review before approving. From the banner you can:
  • Add Adjustments: Opens the adjustment create page.
  • Create with Custom Settings: Reopens the run flow to change the period or dates.
When everything looks right, click Approve & Pay to process.

Payment status timeline

Once a run reaches the payment stage, a horizontal timeline tracks its progress through these stages:
The current stage is highlighted, and completed stages show a check mark. Before payment, the timeline shows a note that it will appear once the run is submitted for payment. The stepper is hidden entirely for cancelled runs. For more on each stage, see Payroll Statuses Explained. Below the stage timeline, a vertical Timeline log shows timestamps for key events: Created, Approved, Payment Received, Funds Transferred to India, Disbursement Started, and Completed. If a run fails, the failure reason is shown here.

Status messages and bank transfer details

Depending on the status, the page shows a contextual message:
  • Awaiting Payment (US): A note that the ACH bank transfer is processing (typically 1-3 business days).
  • Awaiting Payment (other countries): The bank transfer details to pay the invoice (bank name, account, IBAN/SWIFT or local routing fields, amount, and reference). After sending your transfer, click Mark Payment as Initiated. You can also pay from the Billing page.
  • Payment Received / Transferring / Disbursing: A short note confirming what is happening next. No action is needed.

AI analysis

For runs that are still in Draft, Pending Approval, or Approved, an AI analysis panel appears so you can review anomalies and cost insights before approving. See AI Payroll Analysis.

FX details

If the run involved a currency conversion, an FX Details card shows:
  • Invoiced Rate: the rate used when the invoice was raised, shown to four decimals with a currency-pair label (for example, INR/USD).
  • Actual Rate: the real conversion rate once it is recorded. Until then it reads Pending conversion.
  • Delta: the difference between the two. It is green when it is zero or in your favour (prefixed with + when positive) and amber when it is negative. A View in wallet → link takes you to your Wallet, where a favourable or unfavourable difference is reflected.

Summary cards and items

A row of summary cards shows the pay date, total gross, total deductions, total net, employer cost, and number of people. When a wallet credit was applied to the run, the Employer Cost card also breaks down into Gross and a green Wallet credit applied line (shown as a negative amount). The Payroll Items table lists each employee. The Name column shows the employee’s name (falling back to “User <id>”) with the line item’s ID beneath it. Gross shows the amount in the employee’s currency, and when a conversion applies it also shows an FX: rate to four decimals. Deductions and Net follow. Once a run is paid, additional columns can appear:
If one employee’s payment fails while others succeed, only that employee’s row shows a failed status. Check the bank status column first, since incorrect or missing bank details are the most common cause. Contact Omnivoo support if you need a failed payment reattempted.

Notes

There is no separate download or export button on the run detail page. To review a run later, open it from Payroll History. Employees can download their own payslips from their dashboard. See Reading Your Payslip.
