What to know

How payout periods are used

Payout periods keep source revenue, rule effective dates, calculation runs, statements, and exports aligned around the same review window.

  • Import or sync rows for the intended period before calculating.
  • Confirm rule effective dates match the period under review.
  • Generate statements only after the period output is reviewed.
  • Keep period boundaries clear when comparing against spreadsheets or downstream payout files.
