← How Summance works

Invoicing

An invoice is built from a contract and the usage rated against it.

Cadence vs. on-demand generation

An invoice generates on the contract's cadence, on schedule and unattended, or on demand through Penny or the UI.

Line items

An invoice's line items map back to the economic events that produced them.

Created and sent together

An invoice is created and sent in the same step, on schedule or on demand.

Worked example

Driftmetric's invoice: one line item at $0.02 × 12,000 = $240.00, generated automatically on the contract's monthly cadence.
