Our bank reconciliation kept failing because 11 payout rows had Arrival Dates in the future that didn't match any bank deposit. Turns out Stripe batched multiple days of charges into single payouts and the dates in the CSV reflected the scheduled arrival, not the actual settlement. The validator flagged every row where the Arrival Date was after the export date so we could hold those for the next reconciliation cycle.

How People Use Stripe Payouts
We export payouts weekly for our multi-currency accounts. One export had po_ IDs for USD payouts but the EUR payouts came through with blank ID fields because they were still in_transit. The validator caught 23 rows with missing payout IDs and 7 rows where the status was 'in_transit' but the Amount column was already populated. Saved us from booking revenue we hadn't actually received yet.
A client's payout export had rows where the Amount was negative because Stripe clawed back funds for a lost dispute. The payout CSV doesn't label those as adjustments, they just show up as negative amounts with a 'paid' status. The validator flagged every negative-amount row so I could reclassify them as dispute losses instead of regular payouts in Xero.
