When Awards Are Finalized
Here's the typical timeline for awards.
During the Period
You see projected awards based on current performance. Numbers update as new data comes in. Nothing is final yet.
After the Period Ends
Performance data is finalized and your administrator reviews the distribution. This can take a few days to a couple of weeks.
When Approved
Status changes to Approved, your award amount is locked in, and it will be included in your next payout.
Factors That Affect Timing
Company review processes
Data verification needs
Holiday schedules
Company-wide threshold requirements
How to Check
Look at the status of each period in your Awards tab. "Pending" means still under review. "Approved" means it's final.
