Keep your explainx teaching agreement, invoices, payout confirmations, and agreed adjustments together. Those records help you reconcile payments and prepare information for your adviser.

## Record each workshop

Note the run, teaching scope, invoice reference, agreed payment basis, and payment received. Keep any cancellation or expense adjustment alongside the original agreement so the record is understandable later.

## Resolve a mismatch

Contact the explainx team with the invoice and run reference if a payment differs from the agreed amount or timing. Use the approved private billing channel for sensitive documents.

## Prepare for reporting

Ask a qualified adviser which records and reporting obligations apply to your situation. Requirements depend on your location and arrangements.
