Payments can have one of the following statuses:

Waiting for payment (waiting_for_payment — in the API methods) — the initial status of a new payment. A payment is created and not yet completed.
Expired — a payment is not completed before the due date.
Cancelled — a payment is cancelled.
Receipt creating (receipt_creating) — a manager manually prepares a receipt (see Processing a payment that requires manual receipt creation).
Receipt sent (receipt_sent) — a manager sent a manually prepared receipt to a customer.
Processing — a temporary status while a payment on the payment gateway side is processed. In the Processing status, all operations for a payment are not available.
Completed — a payment is processed (a customer paid for a payment).
Paid from balance (paid_from_balance) — a customer paid for a payment using the account balance.

Only payments with the bank transfer or cash payment methods can have the Receipt creating and Receipt sent statuses (see Configuring payment methods).
Only payments with a payment method based on a payment gateway connector can have the Processing status (for details, see Creating a payment method).
