Within Ricochet, there are two ways to conduct payouts to your consignors:
Individual/Manual Payouts: running a single payout outside of a normal schedule.
Bulk Payouts: running payouts for multiple people for sales through a specific date.
When posting an individual payout, it will remove any funds due from their consignor account. This will keep them out of the next bulk payout, so you don't have to change your normal process to account for that one-time event.
How To Run An Individual Payout:
