It's an hourly contract. There is no such thing as "releasing payment".
The client will be charged for the manual time today automatically.
Be aware that there is no protection for manual time.

Your client will be charged later today and there is no such thing as "releasing" payment on hourly contracts.

Payment will occur automatically and on the same schedule as tracked hours. The only difference is, as Petra pointed out, manual hours are not protected. If the client refuses to pay, that's the end of it. I've earned a lot of money via manual hours but it carries that risk.
