# Verifications

> Order payroll, banking, and Doc VOI reports through one lifecycle.

A verification is an order for a report. You select the report type, then users connect their payroll or financial accounts, or documents are uploaded directly through the API or collected in Link. The result is a PDF and, when supported, JSON.
