Billing history
Where to find past invoices, what each row shows, how to download PDFs, and what happens when a payment fails
The billing history is the audit trail of everything that has been charged to your organization — subscription renewals, overage, upgrades, refunds, and failed-payment retries. It lives at Organization → Billing → History and is visible to any role.
What you see
Each row in the history table represents a single billing event:
| Column | What it shows |
|---|---|
| Date | When the event happened (your local time zone) |
| Description | Human-readable label — e.g. Subscription Created, Renewal, Overage Charge, Upgrade Proration, Refund |
| Amount | Charge amount |
| Period | The billing period the charge applies to |
| Status | Paid, Pending, or Failed |
| Method | The payment method (card, transfer, etc.) |
| Actions | Download invoice PDF, view payment reference |
Pagination is 20 rows per page. The newest event is on top.
Downloading an invoice
Each paid event has a Download action that generates a PDF invoice. The PDF includes:
- Your organization name and address (set in Organization → Settings)
- The line items charged
- The payment reference
- The billing period covered
- VAT note (taxes are included in displayed prices)
Use these PDFs for accounting, reimbursement, or year-end reconciliation.
Filtering and search
Above the table you'll find filters for:
| Filter | Options |
|---|---|
| Date range | Last 30 days, last 90 days, this year, custom |
| Status | Paid, Pending, Failed, All |
| Type | Subscription, Overage, Upgrade, Refund, All |
Filters combine — e.g. "Failed" + "Overage" + "Last 90 days" shows only failed overage charges in the last quarter.
Failed payments
A failed payment shows up with status Failed and a reason in the description (e.g. Card declined, Insufficient funds). When this happens:
Automatic retries
The provider retries the charge a few times over the following days using the saved authorization. You don't need to do anything yet.
Email notification
The owner of the organization receives an email with the failure reason and a link back to the billing page.
Manual retry
If retries don't succeed, open the failed event in history and click Retry payment. This re-attempts the charge with our payment provider. You can also update the payment method first via Organization → Billing → Payment methods.
Service paused if unresolved
If the charge stays unpaid, the subscription is flagged as past due and new analyses pause until the bill is settled. Contact support if you need help restoring service.
Past-due subscriptions don't lose data — they just pause new analyses and integrations. Resolving the failed charge restores full service immediately.
Refunds
Refunds appear as their own rows with a negative amount. They're
issued from the admin side — to request one, email
support@sigsentry.com with the payment reference.
| Refund type | Notes |
|---|---|
| Full refund | Issued for billing errors or extreme cases |
| Partial refund | Common for proration disputes or service incidents |
| Overage credit | Added to next cycle's quota instead of returned through the payment provider — used for SLA credits |
Required permissions
| Action | Role |
|---|---|
| View history | Any role |
| Download invoice PDF | Any role |
| Retry failed payment | team:manage (admin or owner) |
| Update payment method | team:manage (admin or owner) |
