Payment Process

Payment Process

Locumate streamlines the payment process for both locums and pharmacies by automatically generating invoices upon timesheet approval. These invoices are stored in the ‘Invoice’ tab within your profile for easy access and reference whenever needed.

How the Payment Process Works:

  1. Shift Completion:
    The locum completes their shift.
  2. Timesheet Submission:
    The locum submits their timesheet, including details of hours worked and any break time taken.
  3. Timesheet Approval:
    The pharmacy has up to 48 hours to approve the submitted timesheet. If no action is taken within this timeframe, the timesheet will be automatically approved.
  4. Invoice Generation:
    Once the timesheet has been approved, invoices are automatically generated and sent to both the locum and the pharmacy every Tuesday. These invoices are delivered via email and are also accessible through the ‘Invoice’ tab in your app profile.

Each invoice includes the locum's account details, enabling the pharmacy to process the payment directly to the locum.
