Approve or reject a payout

.md

Decide on a payout request. Rejecting one that was approved withdraws the approval.

Approve a pending payout, or reject a pending or approved one. The same decision as on the website, under the same rules, and the trader hears of it the same way: a notification, and for an approval an email when the firm has that mail turned on.

Approving moves no money. That happens outside Propper, after which the payout is marked paid. It is refused when the consistency rule fails on the account as it is now, because the trader's best day may have grown since they asked.

Rejecting an approved payout is what the website calls "Withdraw approval": the team found something between approving and sending the money. The trader reads rejected_reason in their notification and on their payouts page.

Answers with the payout as it is after the decision.

Needs a firm. Our own staff name one with the Propper-Workspace header.
