    description: >-
      A `Customer` is an entity connected to a `Merchant` via a `Subscription`.
      This represents the merchant-facing perspective of `Consumers` who
      purchase their `Products`.
  - name: Billable Metrics
    description: >-
      A `Billable Metric` defines a measurable quantity tied to a `Product`'s
      consumption. Each metric stores details including its label, an
      explanatory description, and measurement units.
  - name: Grants
    description: >-
      Grants credit a customer's metered entitlement balance. Merchants can
      create grants directly or void existing ones.


      Use `GET /v1/entitlements?customerId={id}` or `GET
      /v1/entitlements?subscriptionId={id}` to find the metered entitlement `id`
      needed for these endpoints.
  - name: Features
    description: >-
      A `Feature` represents a specific capability or functionality provided by
      a `Product`. Features can be metered (usage-based), static (fixed
      allocation), or boolean (enabled/disabled).
  - name: Fees
    description: >-
      A `Fee` defines a recurring or one-time charge tied to a `Product`. Fees
      are linked to prices, and cadence is defined on the Price.
  - name: Plans
    description: >-
      A `Plan` links a collection of `Prices` to a `Product`. It functions as a
      pricing structure document for a particular feature set or service
      offering.
  - name: Prices
    description: >-
      A `Price` determines the monetary value for a single unit of a `Billable
      Metric`. Prices are exclusively grouped within a `Plan`.
  - name: Products
    description: >-
      A `Product` is an offering sold by a `Merchant`. It includes product
      metadata like title, summary, and pricing details. `Plans`, `Prices`, and
      `Subscriptions` are all associated with products.
  - name: Sources
    description: >-
      A `Source` is an external data provider capable of automatically creating
      usage events. Configuration occurs at the plan level, enabling data
      retrieval from third-party platforms such as Stripe to produce billable
      events.
  - name: Subscriptions
    description: >-
      A `Subscription` is a customer's commitment to purchase a `Product`
      following the terms of a `Plan` and its linked `Prices`.
  - name: Users
    description: >-
      A `User` is an entity granted access to an Organization's resources. All
      operations are performed by users.
  - name: Invoices V2
    description: >-
      Invoice V2 operations supporting billing cycles organized by time periods.
      Warning: v0 invoice endpoints are no longer supported.
  - name: Revenue
    description: Revenue data from invoices and payments
  - name: Profitability
    description: Per-customer profitability summaries
  - name: Test Clocks
    description: >-
      Test clocks provide programmable time control to simulate subscription and
      billing scenarios during testing.
  - name: Events
    description: Ingest raw metering events that are processed by the meters service.
  - name: Payments
    description: >-
      Create and manage one-off payments. A payment represents a single charge
      that a merchant wants to collect from a customer.
  - name: Payment Sessions
    description: >-
      Handle payment session lifecycle and processing across various entity
      types including invoices and subscriptions
  - name: Costs
    description: >-
      A Cost represents the operational or infrastructure expense of serving
      customers for a given product. Costs are metered (driven by event-based
      usage) and are tracked in parallel with billable metrics to give merchants
      visibility into both revenue and cost per customer.
  - name: ExternalReferences
    description: >-
      An `ExternalReference` links a Paygentic entity (e.g. an `Item`) to a
      record in an external system such as Salesforce or NetSuite. Multiple
      external records may map to the same Paygentic entity, but each external
      id is the *primary* reference of at most one entity per merchant.
  - name: Items
    description: >-
      An `Item` is the canonical "thing you sell" that external-system mappings
      point at. It is fully decoupled from the billing `Product` and holds no
      pricing/plan/metering, and it is CRM/ERP agnostic — which providers map to
      it lives entirely in its `ExternalReference` rows.
  - name: MerchantIntegrations
    description: >-
      A `MerchantIntegration` records a merchant's connection to an external
      provider. One connection per `(merchant, provider)` — re-connecting
      upserts in place.
  - name: Approvals
    description: Submit, decide, cancel, and read maker-checker approvals.
  - name: Orders
    description: Manage Orders, their line items, and billing schedules.
  - name: Billing Schedules
    description: >-
      Owner-polymorphic billing schedules with intervals and staged invoice
      projections. A BillingSchedule belongs to exactly one Order or one
      Subscription (XOR). Cadence lives on ScheduleIntervals
      (cadence-on-the-line).

            providers, but the value must satisfy the same format every stored
            provider does, so a malformed one is rejected rather than answered
            with an empty result that reads as "nothing is mapped". It never
            removes lines or items: an item with no reference for this provider
            comes back with an empty list, so unmapped SKUs stay visible.
            Ignored when the items expansion is not requested.

            Item the line's charge was tagged with, recorded when the line was
            generated and not re-resolved on read. A discount line carries the
            same item as the charge it offsets. `null` means the charge carried
            no tag at that moment, the line predates item stamping, or the line
            has no originating charge (a grant-credit purchase) — it is an
            expected value, not an error. Use `priceId` to tell those cases
            apart.

            The price this line was generated from, or `null` when the line has
            no originating charge. With `itemId` it says whether a missing tag
            is fixable: `priceId` set and `itemId` null means the charge was
            simply untagged, which tagging it and restamping resolves; both null
            means the line records a grant-credit purchase, which is deferred
            revenue and is never tagged. Any measure of outstanding mapping work

            When this line falls due relative to the window it covers:
            `in_advance` at the window's start, `in_arrears` at its end. A
            metered line is stamped `in_arrears`, because usage is only known
            once the window closes — but metered rows written before that rule
            carry `null` and were never backfilled, so do not read a metered
            line's term as guaranteed. `null` also means the line is not billed
            on a term of its own: manual, grant-discount and adjustment lines
            carry no term, and an adjustment instead falls due with the charge
            it reduces. Treat `null` as an expected value on any line type, not
            an error.

            way round (an external id is the primary reference of at most one
            item per merchant), so it does not reduce an item's references to
            one per provider. Entries are ordered newest first, tie-broken by
            id, so the order is stable across reads — but a consumer that needs
            exactly one code must choose deliberately rather than assume there
            is only one.
