Reconciled Billing Report

The Reconciled Billing Report presents the completed month-end comparison between reverse-billing usage processed by PMT and usage supplied by each mobile network operator (MNO). Use it for the formal review of a completed billing period rather than for day-to-day monitoring.

Formal disclaimer and what it means

Formal disclaimer shown in the portal

The information contained in this report is based on the completed reconciliation of reverse-billing usage between PMT’s internal data pipeline and the official reports provided by the applicable Mobile Network Operators (MNOs). The values presented represent the reconciled usage and associated cost following the formal month-end reconciliation process.

As this report reflects the reconciled amounts derived from the operator reports and PMT’s processed usage data, the figures should be regarded as the final reconciled view for the applicable reporting period, unless subsequent adjustments, corrections, or disputes are raised and agreed upon by the relevant parties.

The report is therefore the final reconciled view currently held by the portal for that period. “Final” does not prevent an authorised later change: an agreed correction, adjustment, or dispute can result in a revised report. When sharing or approving figures, retain the month, year, export, and date of review.

Request a monthly report

1. Open Reports → Reconciled Billing Report.
2. Select the required Month and Year.
3. Select Request Report.
4. Wait for the report cards and entity breakdown to finish loading.
5. Confirm that the heading shows the intended reporting period.

The year selector covers the current year and recent previous years. Reset clears the selected report and its results. Report data is limited to entities your account is allowed to view.

Read the operator totals

The Aggregated Billing Usage and MNO Usage section shows one card per mobile operator:

• Applied Usage is reverse-billing usage derived from PMT's processed data;
• MNO Usage is usage from the applicable operator's official reconciliation data; and
• Variance is the percentage difference between applied and MNO usage.

The portal calculates variance relative to MNO usage: (Applied Usage − MNO Usage) ÷ MNO Usage × 100. A positive value means applied usage is higher; a negative value means it is lower. When both values are zero, variance is zero. When MNO usage is zero but applied usage is present, the portal displays 100%, so review the underlying data rather than relying on that percentage alone.

Read usage per entity

The Usage per Entity area groups the reconciled result by entity. For each mobile operator it shows:

• Applied Usage attributed to the entity from PMT's data;
• MNO Usage assigned to the entity during reconciliation; and
• Allocation, the percentage of the reconciled operator amount allocated to that entity.

Allocation is a reconciliation value for the selected period. It should not be interpreted as general customer market share. If an entity or operator is missing, first check your permissions and confirm that reconciled data exists for that month.

Preview the detailed report

Select Preview Detailed Report on an entity card to generate the entity's report for the selected month. The preview includes daily operator usage and visual breakdowns that help explain how the monthly total was formed.

Check the entity name and report period in the preview before downloading or sharing it. The detailed report may include:

• a daily usage table split by mobile operator;
• a usage breakdown per mobile operator; and
• a daily stacked usage chart.

Export to CSV

Export to CSV becomes useful after report data has loaded. The export contains two principal sections:

1. aggregated operator values for applied usage, MNO usage, and variance; and
2. per-entity values for the operator, applied usage, MNO usage, and allocation.

Keep the report period and user scope with the CSV. Two exports are comparable only when they were requested for the same month and the users had equivalent entity access.

Investigate an unexpected result

1. Confirm the selected month and year.
2. Check applied usage, MNO usage, and variance for the affected operator.
3. Open the entity's detailed report and identify the dates contributing to the difference.
4. Confirm that the correct MNO reconciliation file was processed for that operator and period.
5. Compare operational usage in Unreconciled Billing Reports, using dates that cover the same complete month.
6. If escalation is required, include the entity, operator, period, CSV, detailed report, and the relevant upload-history status.
