Reconciliation invoice
The reconciliation invoice is used to settle differences between usage allocated to shippers based on profiles and actual usage determined over a certain period of time. The settlement itself is carried out by local distribution companies (LDCs). GTS first sends the debit invoices, twice a year, in April and October. When the debit invoices have been paid, credit invoices covering the same period are sent. See below for an example of a reconciliation invoice.

How can you check a reconciliation invoice?
Every month, local distribution companies (LDCs) send reconciliation messages to shippers and to GTS; these are known as RN_INFO messages. GTS checks the information received, aggregates the information by shipper and then forwards this aggregated information to the shippers using RS_INFO messages. You can compare the data received, every month, by using those messages.
