How can I audit my subscription and payment history using AI?

Where every issue lands.

Audit outcomes

The AI organizes its findings into these specific categories.

RECONCILE

Payment log matching

The AI compares recent payments against expected revenue. It flags any gaps where a payment was expected but never recorded.

Invoice detail review

The agent scans individual invoices to verify amounts and dates. This identifies specific billing errors or duplicate charges.

HUMAN

Manual intervention needed

The AI flags high-priority discrepancies that require your direct attention. You decide how to handle disputed charges or manual adjustments.

FAQ

How this task behaves

  • 01

    Can the AI change a subscription status?

    No. The AI can only read subscription, payment, and invoice data. You must manually update statuses in Zoho Billing.

  • 02

    Can the AI delete an invoice if it's a duplicate?

    No. The AI identifies duplicates by reading the data, but it does not have the capability to delete or modify records.

  • 03

    Does the AI see my full credit card numbers?

    No. The AI only accesses the data exposed by the Zoho Billing tools, which does not include full sensitive payment credentials.

  • 04

    How does the AI know if a payment failed?

    The AI reviews the payment logs provided by the list_payments tool to identify failed or declined transactions.

  • 05

    Can I use this to generate new invoices?

    No. This specific task is for auditing existing data. The tools provided are for listing and reading information, not creating new records.
