- Note: If a payment contains only earnings populated through one-time payments that are set to be paid 'As Soon As Possible', additional earnings cannot be added on the Payment Details page. Additional earnings must be added by editing the one-time payment instead.
Earnings can be added by clicking '+ Add Earnings' at the top of the Gross Earnings table.
