How Microsoft Teams works with Wingspan

Microsoft Teams keeps your team in touch through chats and channels. Wingspan manages worker records, checks, and pay. Each worker record is called a payee. Worker types include Contractor and W-2.

Teams receives status alerts and links to Wingspan. Channels group updates by team or project. Your team chooses which events send alerts. Chat messages do not create worker records or release pay.

Managers follow links to review work in Wingspan. Approving a contractor work log creates one amount owed. The contractor sees an invoice. Your team sees a payable. Finance gives separate payment approval. W-2 workers use employee payroll runs and pay statements with tax withholding.

Payment alerts share progress. Deposit confirmation means the sending bank finished processing. It does not prove the worker’s bank posted funds.
