How should a price-realization review cover B2B, SaaS, and markets?
Table 2How should a price-realization review cover B2B, SaaS, and markets?
| Review route | Declare | Safe interpretation |
|---|---|---|
| Formula and calculation | Numerator, denominator, unit, price object, deduction rule, currency, and time window | The result answers the named question only |
| Strategy and failure diagnosis | Decision owner, failed waterfall layer, mix, concession, collection date, and definition version | A changed rate is a diagnosis prompt, not proof of a better price |
| Dashboard and data | Source fields for list, invoice, pocket, cash, credits, freight, terms, and unresolved items | A dashboard is a view of the reconciliation, not evidence by itself |
| B2B, SaaS, and markets | Contract terms, billing event, usage or seat unit, local currency, taxes, and comparable transaction or customer-period | Contextual rates are not universal benchmarks or automatically comparable |
| AI price realization | Candidate anomaly, missing field, deduction classification, confidence, human reviewer, and decision record | AI may accelerate review; it does not choose the price boundary or explain causality |
| Finance, governance, evidence, and checklist | Revenue or cash basis, cost boundary, owner, approval, escalation, source, comparison, and review date | A complete record supports reconciliation and control, not a P&L or causal effect |
