Check your usage and statements
Match a statement line back to the accepted usage and receipt behind it, check the period and currency, and read a correction without losing the audit trail.
Before you start
A statement line is a total of accepted usage inside one period, in one currency. Every line traces back to jobs, and every job leaves a receipt.
You need a member role that can read finance records. A work key cannot read statements, and it cannot change one.
Open the statement for a period
- Open the statement list for your organization or project.
- Choose the period you want. The statement names its start, its end and its currency.
- Export the statement if your finance system needs a file. The export carries the same lines you see.
Read the period boundaries before you compare two statements. Work that finished after the period ends belongs to the next one.
Match a line to accepted usage
Each line names a workflow, its natural unit and the accepted count for the period. Multiply nothing yourself — the count and the amount are both stated.
To go one level deeper, list the jobs behind the line. Each job carries the accepted units it produced, so the job totals add up to the line.
Check the receipt behind a job
Every finished job has a signed receipt projection inside its result bundle. The receipt is what proves the job ran and what it accepted.
Receipts stay content-free. They record the shape of the work, never your input data, so you can attach a receipt reference to a finance query safely. See receipts and provenance for what a receipt records.
Read a correction
A correction never edits a line that was already issued. It arrives as its own line, on a statement, carrying its own amount and its reason.
That keeps the audit trail complete: the original line, the correction and both receipts all remain readable afterwards. If you export a corrected period again, the export shows both lines.
Every version of a finance record carries a version that only moves forward. Reading the same record twice gives you the same answer unless a new version exists.
If a line does not match
Compare three things in this order: the period, the currency and the accepted unit. Most mismatches are a period boundary or two lines using different units.
If the numbers still disagree, the next step is a correction request rather than a private adjustment in your own system. Follow adjustments and disputes and keep the statement period and the receipt reference with your request.
Never send input data, a key or a signed URL with a billing question. The receipt reference and the period are enough to locate the work.
