How People Use Stripe Invoices

Seventeen invoices had Amount Due showing as '1050' instead of '10.50' — the export used cents for some rows and dollars for others. The numerical precision check flagged every mismatch. Importing those as-is would have inflated our AR by $17,000 and triggered a panicked call from the CFO.

Accounts Receivable Manager · tracks $180K in monthly Stripe invoicing

Our invoice export had 38 rows where the Customer ID column was empty — invoices created through the API for one-time charges without linking a customer object. The completeness check caught them all. NetSuite requires a customer link on every invoice, so those 38 would have failed the import silently.

Tomasz K.
SaaS Billing Engineer · migrating 4,200 invoices to NetSuite

A client's export included Customer IDs that didn't match any record in their customer export — leftover references from deleted customers. The validator's referential integrity flag helped us identify 22 orphaned invoices before they hit QuickBooks with no matching customer. Clean links or no import.
