Settlement exports and segregation of duties

Last reviewed: 2026-04-27 · Owner: Product & Engineering (finance review for mutations)

Goal

Understand how settlement and export surfaces are governed so partner admins do not bypass commercial controls (ADR-037).

Prerequisites

  • Finance or platform role if you will download sensitive exports (SPEC-027).
  • No expectation that partner admins can self-approve commercial policy changes.

Steps

  1. Read commercial posture on partner detail responses—treat as read-only unless your role allows mutation APIs.
  2. Request exports through approved finance workflows; avoid sharing CSV extracts in unsecured channels.
  3. Link troubleshooting to Finance Sync when reconciliation requires adapter runs (SPEC-033).

Verify

  • Attempts to mutate segregated fields without authority fail with explicit errors.
  • Audit trails exist for approved changes (per deployment configuration).

If it fails

Stop before “workarounds” that bypass SoD. Escalate to finance operations with policy references, not ad hoc instructions.
