Billing & Invoices
What each depositor is charged.
Overview
Billing totals each depositor’s charges for a period: leases plus pay-as-you-store (each occupied bin or shelf, less leased time) at the rate card per hour, day or month. An hourly background job raises one draft Accounting invoice per depositor for each closed cycle, in the contract currency, and a failure is stored and retried. “Invoice up to now” bills whole units only, so nothing is charged twice. A missing exchange rate fails the run with a plain message instead of guessing.
