Payroll Statuses

Status:	Unprocessed	Submitted	Pending	Paid
Description	A payroll's default state when it is first created.	Payroll has been submitted to Gusto for processing but bank debits have not been initiated yet.	Payroll has been submitted to Gusto and company bank debits have been initiated.	A payroll was submitted, processed, and employee direct deposit payments have been initiated (employees paid / payroll complete).
Business Logic	`"processed": false`	`"processed": true` Current time is `<` 4:00pm PT on the `payroll_deadline`	`"processed": true` Current time is `>=` 4:00pm on the `payroll_deadline`	`"processed": true` Current time is `>=` `check_date`
Transitions	An unprocessed payroll transitions to the next status - **submitted - when payroll is submitted.	A submitted payroll transitions to pending at 4:00pm PT on the `payroll_deadline`. When a submitted payroll is canceled, a payroll transitions back to `"processed": false` (unprocessed).	A pending payroll transitions to paid on the `check_date`. If Gusto is unable to debit the company bank account (i.e lack of funds), the payroll will transition back to unprocessed.	This is the final state of a payroll and it does not transition to another status from here.
Can Update? (includes skip)	Yes	No	No	No
Can Cancel?	No	Yes	No	No
Additional Details		_Bank debits will initiate a little after 4:00pm PT on the `payroll_deadline`. If payroll is submitted after 4:00pm PT on the `payroll_deadline`, the payroll will be delayed by 1 business day and the `payroll_deadline` will update accordingly._		Direct deposits are typically paid early on the morning of the `check_date` but sometimes it takes a little longer for banks to update. Please up to 24 hrs for the deposits to be reflected on employee bank statements.
