Billing funds "in review"

[delgado_alfredo]

I see funds in my report under "in review".   I notice something that says the client needs to approve or has up to 5 days to approve those funds.  Could you please explain this section and the payout process.

Hi Alfredo,

The funds under In Review tab are currently subjected to the client's review. Please check the Weekly Billing Cycle article for more information about the schedule to release hourly payments. It takes about 10 days for payments to be processed. The first week is when you log time on an hourly contract, which ends every Sunday. The client then has 5-days to review, and/or, dispute any the hours logged on the Work Diary. If there are no issues with the hours logged, the payment for the contract will then go to a 5-day security period before it becomes available on your account.

Is there a way for the client to approve funds within the first 5 days,( the review period), so it will move to the next 5 day security period. Hope that makes sense,

Not for hourly contracts. The billing cycle is fixed for those.

For fixed-price contracts, the review period is 14 days, and the client can approve it early to move it along.
