Moves a pending payroll's status to draft, allowing you to make further edits to the payroll or its items.
Payrolls can only be reopened up until their reopen_deadline
, which is calculated after it is approved. After the reopen_deadline
is passed, the payroll will move from a pending
to a processing
status, and can no longer be reopened (because it is has begun being processed by Check).
In general, the reopen_deadline
for a payroll is set to 1 hour after it is approved, or the payroll's approval_deadline
, whichever is earlier.
In addition, the earliest that the reopen_deadline
can be is 11am ET on the day of the approval_deadline
. In other words, if a payroll is approved several days in advance of the payroll's approval_deadline
, then the payroll will still be able to reopened until 11am ET on the day of the approval_deadline
.
