# Payment tracking for expense reports

> Administrators and managers can now see much more detail about the payment status of contractor expense reports in Approved tab of the Expenses page.

### Improvement

* If the contractor is associated with a pay schedule, the payroll run that will process the reimbursement will be displayed
* Admins will see when reimbursements can be processed using one-time payments
* If the payment has already been initiated, a status of `Scheduled`, `Processing`, `Paid`, or `Failed` will be displayed
* Every expense row in the Approved tab can now be expanded to show details of the expense, including the approver and approval date
* The pay date will be provided along with payroll run details when applicable
* If an expense has been approved but not paid, an alert will show for that expense, as a prompt for you to schedule a payment for it.

In the event of a payment failure, Pilot admins will see an alert on the Overview page and be presented with choices to resolve the issue. This involves one of the following:

* Marking the expense as paid because another payment was already made for it
* Adding it to the next upcoming payroll run (if the affected user is assigned to a pay schedule)
* Paying the user with a one-time payment using the Pay Contractors page
