Approve a payroll

Approves a payroll.

🚧

Approval deadline cutoff time

To pay someone by direct deposit on the payroll's payday, the payroll, whether new or reopened, must be approved by 5 PM PT on the date of its approval_deadline. Late payrolls or requests for adjustment after this deadline will require manual escalation with Check.

The payroll must have a completed preview (indicated by a preview.status of succeeded) before it can be approved.

    "status": "succeeded",
    "started_at": "2019-06-29T18:26:56.848920Z"
  },
  ...
}

Approving a preview approves the most recent preview of the payroll and moves the payroll status to pending, and the payroll must be reopened before it can be further modified.
