# Understand Payment Status Values

The **Status** badge on each row of Balances \> Payment Dashboard shows where a payment stands. The full set of values is:

- **Pending** — an online payment that has been initiated but hasn't finished processing yet. An Owner or Org Admin can cancel a Pending ACH payment; see "[How Do I Cancel a Pending ACH Payment?](https://help.hoastart.app/how-do-i-cancel-a-pending-ach-payment?hsLang=en)".
- **Succeeded** — paid online through the connected payment processor.
- **Marked** — an Owner or Org Admin manually recorded it as paid, for example a mailed check or cash handed in.
- **Unmarked** — a manual payment that was later voided (see "[How Do I Mark or Unmark an Invoice as Paid](https://help.hoastart.app/how-do-i-mark-or-unmark-an-invoice-as-paid?hsLang=en)").
- **Failed** — an online payment attempt that didn't go through.
- **Canceling** — a cancelation of a Pending bank (ACH) payment has been requested and is still being processed. The Actions button on the row is grayed out until the status changes to Canceled.
- **Canceled** — the payment was canceled after a cancelation request was confirmed. The invoice returns to Open, or to Late if its due date has passed.
- **Refund Pending** — a refund has been initiated on an online payment but hasn't finished processing.
- **Refunded** — the online payment has been fully refunded.

##### **Filtering by status**

![The Status filter list open in the Payment Dashboard Filter panel, showing Pending, Succeeded, Marked, Unmarked, Failed, Canceling, Canceled, Refund Pending, and Refunded](https://help.hoastart.app/hs-fs/hubfs/empower-kb-payment-status-1-status-list-open-v2.png?width=260&name=empower-kb-payment-status-1-status-list-open-v2.png)

You don't have to scroll and scan for a specific status. Click **Filter** on the Payment Dashboard page and use the **Status** dropdown to narrow the table to just one status at a time (for example, only "Refunded" payments, or only "Failed" attempts).
