Payments history

This page provides an overview of the payments history feature of the Client Portal

The payments history screen provides a list of all inbound and outbound payments received from and sent to an external counterparty/non-Orbital account or wallet. This view allows for easy navigation of payments made in the past, with search and filter functionality to quickly find specific payments. Internal transfers between a client's Orbital accounts, as well as currency conversions will not appear in the payments history, and can be viewed in the transactions list for a specific account via the Accounts option in the left side navigation panel.


Navigating to the payments history screen

The payments history screen is accessible via the Payments option in the left side navigation panel, and under the Payment History tab.

When on the payments history screen, payments are presented in a table format and are ordered by created date such that the most recent payments will always appear at the top of the list, even when filters and search terms are applied. The payments list is infinity scroll, and additional results if present are continuously and automatically loaded and displayed when the user scrolls towards the bottom of the visible list of payments.

The table contains a set of key payment details that allow for specific payments to be identified at a glance. The Orbital transaction reference can be copied in one click via the copy icon .

Users with a role that allows for payment creation will be able to initiate new payments from the payments history screen via the Make a payment button. User roles are defined in the User roles defined page.


Payment status defined

🟠 Processing / Pending -> The payment is being processed by Orbital, and the settlement times mentioned in the Payment settlement times page apply

🔵 Pending approval -> The payment is pending approval. This typically refers to payment approval on the client's side as per the configured payment approval rules. The designated payment approver/s will be required to take action to approve or reject the payment, as mentioned in the Approving/rejecting transaction page. If action by a designated payment approver is not required, this status will then indicate that the beneficiary of the payment is still under review by Orbital, as mentioned in the Beneficiary review

🟢 Completed -> The payment has completed processing and has either been successfully sent to the external beneficiary's account if outbound, or has been successfully applied to the client's Orbital account if inbound.

🔴 Cancelled -> The payment has been cancelled, and funds have been returned to the originating account.
