Every transaction adjusts the balance of an account and provides a full audit trail of how money moves within Monime. --- ### Use Cases - **Customer Payment Recording** A user pays SLE 500 into your platform via Mobile Money. *Result*: A **credit transaction** is posted to a financial account of the space; this transaction is linked to a **Payment** created from the originating **Payment Code**. - **Fee Deduction** A SLE 50 fee is charged for a payout of SLE 1,000. *Result*: - A **debit transaction** of SLE 1,000 from the payout account. - A **debit transaction** of SLE 50 from the payout account. - **Internal Transfer** Moving SLE 10,000 from a Settlement Account to a Disbursement Float. *Result*: - A **debit transaction** on the Settlement Account. - A **credit transaction** on the Disbursement Float Account. - **Refund or Reversal** If a payment is refunded, a corresponding **debit transaction** reduces the merchant’s balance. *Result*: The audit trail shows both the original credit and the refund debit, linked together. --- CoreresourcesParentOwningObject: title: OwnershipObject type: object properties: id: type: string description: '**Unique ID** of the object instance that owns this entity.' readOnly: true type: type: string description: >- **Type of the object** that owns this entity.
