As a label using Tone, your Royalties Hub is where you’ll see royalty periods that have been processed by Tone. The hub is organized into clear sections so you always know what needs your attention, what’s coming up, and what’s already been completed.
From the Tone home page, click Royalties in the main menu at the top. This will take you straight into your Royalties Hub, where you can view, manage, and take action on your royalty periods.
This section shows all periods that require your attention.
A period that is ready for you to review will display a Review button.
These statements have not yet been approved or sent to your payees.
A period that is ready to be funded will display a Create a payout button.
These statements have already been approved by you and sent to your payees.

Tone Tip! Period labels in this section reflect the month(s) of reported income that are included:
We recommend leaving each period in the “Ready to Action” section, as long as any payees still need to be paid (even if others have already been paid). If you have paid all royalties for the period or are certain no other payments will be made (usually just before processing the next royalty period), you can close the period.
In the main Royalties Hub, you’ll see a Create Draft button. Click this to start a new royalty period. Drafts you create will appear in the Upcoming section until they are finalized.
This section shows the next period(s) you are preparing in Tone.
