WORKSPOTHQ — FICTIONAL TEACHING EXAMPLE

A fictional ride with a later tip

Synthetic guidance only. Not a real receipt, claim requirement, or measured processor output.

Trip charge
$24
Check: Check whether tolls or other fees are already included.

Later tip
$4
Check: Use the final receipt or payment update.

Final payment
$28
Check: 24 + 4 explains the settlement; do not add $28 again.

Temporary authorization
$30 pending
Check: A pending hold is not evidence of another settled ride.

Report the supported final charge according to your policy. Keep the trip date, currency and final receipt together, and distinguish a temporary hold from a completed payment.

REVIEW CHECKLIST

1. Collect the final ride or rental receipt rather than an estimate.

2. Check fare, taxes, tolls, tips and service fees.

3. Separate parking or toll receipts only when they are genuinely separate charges.

4. Compare refunds and adjustments before submitting.

LIMITATIONS

A card authorization may not be a settled charge. Brand-specific formats vary; always verify the extracted values.
