Advanced Payment

An advanced payment lets one crew member's payment be processed earlier than the rest of the crew payroll, while the remaining crew continue through the standard payroll cycle.

Create an advanced payment

1. Open the Summary tab

   In the Management Site payroll module, navigate to the Summary tab.

2. Create the advanced payment

   Click the three dots next to the relevant crew member and select Create Advanced Payment.

   

3. Enter date and comment

   Enter the requested payment date and a comment, then click Submit.

   

Once submitted, the payroll record and any associated adjustments are locked and sent to the Employer as a separate payroll record, so separate funding requests run alongside the payroll for the remaining crew members.

Finalise and release

1. View the advanced payment

   In the Employer Site, navigate to the Payroll Provider tab, click the three dots next to the crew member and select View Advanced Payment.

   

2. Update adjustments

   If necessary, update any recurring adjustments by selecting Edit Adjustments.

3. Submit for funding

   When all details are finalised, click Change Status to Submitted for Funding. This generates a funding request while still allowing additional adjustments if required.

   

4. Send to the bank

   Once approved by the Employer, the payment is transmitted to the bank for processing.
