Hey! Why specifically do you need to account for any discrepancies? Generally we'd recommend to rely on the values returned via the API

Well it's the same reason stripe does it here. For example the "Total Balance" column isn't a value that's returned from the API it's actually calculated.

Available to payout is the instant which is fine, the Available soon in the pending value i believe.

[jaunty flicker]

I don't understand the question I'm afraid. Total balance there (in your screenshot) is a sum of available soon and available to payout

[sinful zinc]

Give me a second i wanna see the actual response. coming back. it was calculated weirdly when the available soon was a negative balance due to a refund. i'll try to recreate.

Ok given this JSON from the balance API for a connect account:

{
   "livemode":false,
   "object":"balance",
   "pending":[
      {
         "amount":2205,
         "currency":"usd",
         "sourceTypes":{
            "card":2205
         }
      }
   ],
   "instantAvailable":[
      {
         "amount":0,
         "currency":"usd",
         "sourceTypes":{
            "card":0
         }
      }
   ],
   "available":[
      {
         "amount":-2824,
         "currency":"usd",
         "sourceTypes":{
            "card":-2824
         }
      }
   ]
}

I now have these values. @jaunty flicker

[jaunty flicker]

$22.05 - $28.24 = -$6.19

[sinful zinc]

So pending minus absolute value of available

I'm assuming the "Available to payout" is a combination of available and instantAvailable?

[jaunty flicker]

Total balance is just the sum of all 3 values

Those could be negative, as you're seeing here

[sinful zinc]

Ah ok i see. i was doing available - abs(pending) for the total.

[jaunty flicker]

Hope that helps?
