An Agreement needs an unambiguous pricing rule and payment path.
Operations adds or updates financial terms inside an Agreement.
This is the key moment: settlement responsibility becomes an explicit term of this agreement.
The cadence belongs to this agreement, not to the owner, and controls when Finance is alerted.
Authors calculation and payment terms.
Reviews agreed exposure against later usage.
Validates and resolves the effective rule.
Calculation, charge basis, direction, settlement mode, and agreement payment cadence as separate terms.
Why: Author an explainable rule.
Agreed terms available for later cost comparison.
Why: Understand financial exposure.
Calculation answers how much; charge basis answers how often usage is charged; settlement mode answers who handles the money; payment cadence belongs to the agreement.
