Authorising payments is a critical step in the Mysa payment workflow, reserved for Admins to ensure secure fund transfers. This article explains how to complete the authorisation process and handle any issues that may arise.
Only Admins have the permission to authorise payments. Finance Controllers can create and review payments, but cannot authorise them.
A payment moves to the In Auth tab once it has been created from ready to Pay. All direct payments created will also move to In Auth directly. From here, it must be authorised by an Admin before it can be processed by the bank.
All the below columns are available in the In Auth Tab. By default Due Amount, Status and PO number columns are hidden. These can be made visible by selecting it from 'Configure Columns' icon on the top right of the table.
