- **[Create a Disbursement](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=sfdo.gm_manage_disbursements.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5)**  
    A Disbursement helps schedule and track outgoing funds to funding recipients. It’s important to note this doesn’t perform the act of disbursement, such as depositing funds into a recipient's bank account.

## Create a Disbursement

2. Enter the Number of Disbursements. For example, enter 4 for four separate payments to the awardee.
