Lottery Management → State Invoices holds the settlement invoices the state sends — daily, weekly or monthly depending on your state. The table shows Invoice #, Period, Sales, Commission, Net Due and Status. Opening one compares, line by line: the State Invoice figure, your Store Records, and the Variance.

Enter an invoice

Scan it

Scan lottery invoice reads the printed settlement — the draw-style section, the instant section, adjustments, service fee, total net due, EFT amount and sweep date. Scanned invoices are marked as such.

Enter it

Enter State Invoice for typing it in by hand.
Whichever route, you confirm the figures before it is saved.

What is being checked

Two things:
1

Does the invoice agree with your own records?

The variance column is the answer. A persistent gap means either the state has it wrong or your terminal reports are incomplete.
2

Is the commission right?

Your commission rates are configured per store and state. PRODUCT_NAME also works out the rate the invoice implies and flags it when that does not look like a believable retailer commission.
Net figures are recalculated from their components rather than trusted as printed, which is what catches a misread sign on a scanned invoice.
Variances of a few dollars across a settlement period are rounding, and are treated as such. It is a consistent gap, or one large one, that is worth taking to the state.
