Payout workflow — Pending, Approved, Paid

Commission entries move through three statuses before payment: Pending → Approved → Paid.

Pending:
• New entries start as Pending; all financial fields are still editable

Approving:
1. Commissions → Entries → find the entry
2. Click Approve (admin only)
3. Status changes to Approved and the entry locks

Marking as Paid:
1. Find an Approved entry → click Mark Paid
2. A paid timestamp is recorded
3. If accounting is configured, a journal entry is automatically posted (Commission Expense debit, Commissions Payable credit)

If GL accounts are not configured, marking Paid still works — the accounting step is skipped silently.

Filtering entries:
• Use the status filter to view Pending, Approved, or Paid entries separately
• Filter by rep or period to narrow the list
