If you've accidentally included payments in a Distribution Draft and need to return them to the Assign Payments list, follow these simple steps to reverse the process.

Step 1: Locate the Distribution Draft

Go to your Distribution List and find the Distribution you’d like to reverse.


Step 2: Ensure It’s Set to Draft

  • If the Distribution is not already in Draft status:

    • Click to open the Distribution Review.

    • Select Set to Draft in the top right.

  • If it is already a Draft, move on to the next step.


Step 3: Navigate to Assign Payments

From the main navigation, select Assign Payments.


Step 4: Filter by Payment Status

  • Near the Search Payments bar, click the Filter icon.

  • Set the Payment Status to In Distribution.

  • Click Update to refresh the list.


Step 5: Find the Correct Distribution

In the refreshed list, look under the Distribution column to identify the payments included in the Draft you're reversing.


Step 6: Remove Payments from Distribution

  • For each relevant payment, click the three-dot menu at the end of the row.

  • Select Remove from Distribution.

  • The payment will be returned to the Assign Payments list and can be added to another Distribution.
