Reconciliation

Navigation: Sidebar → Reconciliation

The Reconciliation page compares actual device counts (from your RMM) against licensed quantities (from Pax8) for each client. This is how you find billing gaps — clients using more than they're paying for, or paying for more than they're using.

Summary Cards

Three color-coded cards show the overall licensing status:

CardColorMeaning
Under-licensedRedClients with more devices than licenses — you're leaving money on the table
Over-licensedYellowClients paying for more licenses than they have devices — potential for adjustment
Properly licensedGreenDevice count matches license count — everything lines up

Client Comparison Table

The main table shows each client with:

ColumnDescription
ClientClient name
DevicesActual device count from your RMM
LicensesLicensed quantity from Pax8 subscriptions
VarianceDifference (positive = under-licensed, negative = over-licensed)
StatusMatched, Under-licensed, or Over-licensed

Taking a Snapshot

Click Take Snapshot in the top-right to capture current device counts:

  1. Click Take Snapshot
  2. BillingOne counts devices per client from your RMM data
  3. Compares them to Pax8 subscription quantities
  4. Results appear in the comparison table

Tip: Take snapshots at the same time each month for consistent billing reconciliation.


Exporting Data

Click Export Report to download the reconciliation data as a CSV file. Use this for:

  • Internal billing reviews
  • Client billing adjustments
  • Audit documentation

Understanding Variance

Positive Variance (Under-licensed)

The client has more devices than licenses. This means:

  • You're managing devices that aren't being billed for
  • Action: Increase the client's subscription quantity or bill for additional devices

Negative Variance (Over-licensed)

The client has fewer devices than licenses. This means:

  • They're paying for licenses they're not using
  • Action: Reduce the subscription quantity to save the client money (and maintain trust)

Zero Variance (Matched)

Device count equals license count — billing is aligned.


Tips

  • Run reconciliation monthly — Make it part of your billing cycle
  • Address under-licensing first — This is lost revenue
  • Communicate over-licensing to clients — Proactively reducing their costs builds trust
  • Export before making changes — Keep a record of the state before adjustments
  • Sync both Pax8 and RMM data first — Ensure counts are current before taking a snapshot
