You can easily view and manage all your upcoming payments after they have been scheduled.

### Viewing Scheduled Payments

You can find all your upcoming payments on the main page by navigating to your bank in the toolbar, then **Payments -> Scheduled Payments**

## FAQs

:::ExpandableHeading
**Why is a date in the calendar disabled?**

Dates are disabled if they fall on a weekend, a known bank holiday, or a date that is in the past from your bank's time zone perspective.
:::

:::ExpandableHeading
**How do scheduled payments work with our existing approval workflows?**

Scheduled payments automatically follow your existing approval workflows, just like regular payments. A payment must be fully approved before it is officially scheduled for its future processing date.
:::

:::ExpandableHeading
**Is the processing date based on my calendar day or the bank's calendar day?**

All scheduling is anchored to your bank's local timezone.&#x20;

A payment scheduled for October 15th will be processed at the start of that day in your bank's location, regardless of where you are in the world.
