# Payment runs

> Manage payment runs for your owner payouts.

Payment runs are a convenient way to pay your owners in bulk rather than having to make individual payments. You can easily track and manage your payments in one place, avoid errors, and ensure that your owners are paid accurately and on time.

## Create a payment run

You must have some owner payouts in the pending state to create a new payment run. Learn more about [Owner Payouts](/owners/owner-payouts).

To create a payment run, navigate to either the **Payment runs** or **Payouts** tab under the **Owners** section of the navigation menu and click **New payment run**. Yorlet will group all pending owner payouts that are not currently attached to a payment run.

When creating a payment run, you can choose:

* **Method**: **Manual** to export the payouts and pay them through your bank, or **Automatic** to have Yorlet pay them from your client funds.
* **Type**: which owners to include - **All**, **Landlords** or **Suppliers**.
* **Region**: **All**, **Domestic** or **International**.

For manual payment runs, you can download a Bacs file, Sage file, or create a CSV export to upload to your bank to make the bulk payments.

## Approve a payment run

A new payment run is created with the status **Requires approval**. To process it, open the payment run and click **Approve**. You will see a summary of the client funds being paid out across the included payouts, then confirm with **Pay** to release the payments.

## Managing payment runs

Each payment run includes a summary of the total amount of the payment run and the status of each payout. Once you receive confirmation of the payout status, you can mark each payout as `paid`, `failed`, or `canceled`.
