To understand how Novi Pay payouts and deposits normally work, see Novi Pay: Balances.

In most cases, payout issues should be handled by reviewing and resolving the status message shown in Novi Pay and then "retrying" the automated deposit.

If you’re unable to resolve the error, you can use this manual option to record the payout in QuickBooks Online (QBO) and reconcile it in Novi.

Identifying a Failed Payout

When viewing Novi Pay > Balances in Novi, you may see a payout with a ⚠️ symbol in the status column:

If your settings are configured to send email notifications of a failed deposit reconciliation, then you will also receive an email like this "Deposit Reconciliation Failed" notice:

    • Note: Your Novi Pay settings have the bank details if you need to verify that information

  • Enter the date the deposit was made into your bank

3. Add Payments
