paymentreceived

Paymentreceived is a term used to describe the successful receipt of funds for a transaction. In data models and payment platforms, it often appears as a status field or as an event indicating that a payment has completed and funds have been deposited to the recipient. The exact meaning can vary by system, but it generally denotes that the payment lifecycle has progressed beyond authorization or pending stages to actual settlement.

In practice, paymentreceived commonly triggers downstream actions such as marking an invoice as paid, updating order status, initiating revenue recognition, and notifying the payer. It may be emitted as a webhook or status update by payment processors and integrated into accounting or ERP workflows to support reconciliation between payments and orders, shipments, or services rendered.

Typical data associated with a paymentreceived event or status includes the amount, currency, payer or customer identifier, payment method, timestamp, transaction or reference IDs, and the related invoice or order ID. Additional metadata may include settlement currency, processor fees, and platform-specific attributes relevant to reporting and reconciliation.

Best practices for handling paymentreceived emphasize idempotency to prevent duplicate processing, verification of event authenticity, and correct sequencing with related records (invoices, orders, refunds). Systems should account for possible delays between payment settlement and confirmation, handle partial or split payments, and align with organizational accounting, tax rules, and compliance requirements. In common usage, paymentreceived is distinguished from related states such as pending, authorized, failed, or refunded, though exact semantics can differ across platforms.
