# Step 5: Managing your payroll

AllScale’s payroll runs automatically on your scheduled pay date. Here’s what you need to know to ensure smooth processing:

1. [**Maintain Sufficient Balance**](/allscale-payroll/modules/dashboard.md#balance)

Make sure your account has enough funds before the scheduled pay date to cover all employee payments.

2. [**Approve Payment**](/allscale-payroll/modules/payroll.md#approve-payment)

Go to your Dashboard and approve the payroll before the pay date.

> ⚠️**What If There’s an Issue?**
>
> * If your balance is too low, your payroll will be marked **overdue** until the issue is resolved. 
> * For any other issues, AllScale will notify you directly so you can take action.
