Flexibility to Reschedule, Pay Now, or Cancel Your Scheduled Transaction

Even when a transaction has already been scheduled, users with roles such as Business Owner, Admin, or Releaser can easily make adjustments. Here are the available options:

  • Pay Now: Use this option when there's an urgent need to pay a scheduled transaction as soon as possible. Please ensure that your company balance is sufficient for this action. You can do it for each single transaction or in bulk.

  • Reschedule: You can reschedule a transaction to occur on a new specific date and time or based on a payment cycle established by your Business Owner or Admin. You can do it for each single transaction or in bulk. Note that if you opt to reschedule transactions in bulk, you can only choose a specific date and time for rescheduling.

  • Cancel: Even if a transaction has been approved and scheduled, you retain the capability to cancel it. You can do it for each single transaction only. Special case for cancellation, Drafters of that transaction can also do it.

In Jack Portal, you have the capability to do these all. Howeveras of the time of this article, in the Jack App, you can choose only between "Pay Now" or "Cancel".
