# Statement Extraction Balance Verification

Review AI-extracted statement balances against the original before accepting prefilled reconciliation inputs.

## Scope
Preparation and review only. No account action or professional decision.

## Inputs
Original statement, extraction status, prefilled ending balance/date and account ID.

## Workflow
1. Require the original statement, not extraction success alone.
2. Compare extracted ending balance and date character-for-character with originals.
3. Keep missing or unreadable statement evidence held.
4. Return differences without entering a reconciliation or accepting an adjustment.

## Output contract
account | extraction_status | original_balance | extracted_balance | original_date | extracted_date | hold

## Fictional acceptance test
Fictional extraction is completed but original ending balance 1020 became 1200. Flag 180 difference. Completed extraction does not certify that the prefilled amount is correct.

## Review gates
Keep original values, source IDs and version dates. Unknown facts stay held. Use qualified review for hiring, legal and accounting conclusions. No send, share, sign-in, scheduling, ledger change or payment. Fictional contract review is not a live account compatibility test.
