Turn approved work into bills

Approved tasks and locked hours in Wrike become work items on a worker assignment in Wingspan. When you approve the work log, the app applies agreed rates to create one bill. Finance reviews and approves the bill before payment.

Check worker onboarding before tasks start

Wingspan tracks required checks on each work template. Contractor workers send W-9 forms and insurance files. The app sends readiness flags to custom fields in Wrike. Leads know workers are ready before assigning tasks.

Keep private bank and tax data safe

Wingspan shares payment dates and status in Wrike custom fields. Project leads track pay progress alongside tasks and schedules. Choose the fields and access rules for the teams that need these updates.

How Wrike works with Wingspan

Wrike helps teams plan projects, assign tasks, and track hours. Wingspan tracks worker records, onboarding checks, and pay. Payment updates in Wrike let project leads track progress alongside their tasks.

In Wingspan, a worker record is called a payee and keeps its Contractor or W-2 type. Contractors submit W-9 forms and receive payment for contractor payables. W-2 workers submit employee tax forms and receive pay through payroll runs with tax withholding. Their wages stay separate from contractor vendor bills.

Project leads review tasks and hours in Wrike. Contractor work details fill Wingspan work logs. Approving a log creates one amount owed, shown as an invoice to the worker and a payable to your team. Finance approves the payable in a separate step before money moves.

Contractors receive payment through contractor pay runs. Client bills track what clients owe your business, with separate amounts and approvals from worker pay.

Sync options

Choose which tool holds each record. Set the changes that sync between them. Connect your records to the Wingspan workflows below.

Approved time logs

Payables

Wrike to Wingspan

Approved contractor hours fill Wingspan work items. A work log groups them for one assignment. Agreed rates set the amount. Approving it creates one amount owed. The contractor sees an invoice. Your team sees a payable. Finance gives separate payment approval.

Task approvals

Work logs and work items

Wrike to Wingspan

When a project lead approves a task in Wrike, the sign-off marks the work item complete in Wingspan. This adds approved work items to the worker assignment. Finance reviews the resulting bill before sending pay.

Task payment status (custom field)

Payment status and references

Wingspan to Wrike

Wingspan shares pay dates and status in Wrike custom fields. Paid is the payment record in Wingspan. Deposit confirmation means the sending bank finished processing. It does not prove the worker’s bank posted funds. Payments can still return.

Selected worker contacts

Worker records (payees)

In both directions

Selected Wrike contacts link to Wingspan worker records. Each record is called a payee. Keep each worker’s Contractor or W-2 type. Client contacts do not become workers by joining a project. Required checks and tax forms follow the correct worker path.

Requirement readiness (custom field)

Requirements and eligibility

Wingspan to Wrike

Engagement templates set required checks. Each assignment tracks the checks for one worker. Wingspan shares readiness in Wrike custom fields. One passed check does not clear every job. Managers see who is ready for that work.

Folders and projects

Engagement templates and assignments

In both directions

A Wrike project links to a work template in Wingspan or sets the scope for a client contract. Individual worker assignments link to that template. This pairs project tasks and budgets with the worker assignment.

Client billing context on tasks

Client invoices and payers

Wrike to Wingspan

Completed tasks or billable hours in Wrike can create draft client bills in Wingspan. Client bills ask clients for payment. They are not worker bills. Client billing stays separate from worker pay.

Plan your integration

Select workers and preserve their types

Select the Wrike contacts that sync to Wingspan. Keep each worker’s Contractor or W-2 type. Client contacts and project observers stay outside worker records. Contractor work uses payables. W-2 work uses employee payroll runs with tax withholding.

Locked time entries and late edits

Choose when approved hours sync from Wrike. Set a cutoff for each review cycle. Late hours enter as new work items or reviewed changes before payment. Your team checks changes against the agreed rates. Do not create a second payable for the same work.

Keep tax and bank records safe

Choose the worker details, assignment readiness fields, and payment updates to share with Wrike. Define access for project teams and review any tax, banking, or document requirements when setting up the sync.
