Review balances and record payouts
Where: Admin → Creators → Balances & payouts
Before you start
A balance is a ledger, not evidence money moved. These package-dependent screens do not establish an automated payout integration by their presence alone. Never mark a transfer paid before the provider confirms it.
Step by step
- Review creator balance, confirmed sales, owner share and previous payouts.
- Reconcile the balance with the actual payment-provider account.
- Perform the supported external payout workflow, then record the confirmed result through the installed package.
- Keep its reference and verify the remaining balance.

Legacy core reference: the installed owning package can replace these declarations. Compare its live screen.

Common questions and troubleshooting
Screen absent: its owning package may be absent, disabled or unlicensed. The supplied starter archive does not include every commercial package. Fields differ: follow the installed package’s declaration; legacy core definitions are not proof of that package’s version.
