Overview
This guide walks you through how to configure rules for automatically applying Adjusting Entries items to invoices in Ripple.
By default, items displayed on the Adjusting Entries page are not included in invoices and must be applied manually. This feature allows you to pre-define rules so that matching items are applied automatically.
For more information on Adjusting Entries, please refer to:
How to Configure Automatic Adjusting Entries Rules
From the left menu in Ripple, go to Settings > Invoice Settings
Under Invoice Filter > Edit
Click the category selector and select a type (e.g., Usage Type)
Click the displayed field and select the target value from the selector on the right (e.g., Fee, Refund)
Click Save filter
Configuration Scope
Rules can be configured for all Payer Accounts or for specific Payer Accounts individually.
To apply a rule to all accounts, edit the global settings section
To apply a rule to a specific Payer Account only, edit the account-specific section
Important Notes A global setting is required — you cannot save a configuration with only account-specific settings and no global setting.
Available Categories
Category | Description |
Product Code | Selects an AWS service — corresponds to the Service column in Adjusting Entries |
Usage Type | Cost type such as Fee, Credit, Refund — corresponds to the Type column in Adjusting Entries |
Description | Corresponds to the Description field in Adjusting Entries — supports pattern matching |
For Description, the following matching options are available:
Option | Description |
Equals | Exact match with the specified value |
Contains | Contains the specified value |
Starts With | Begins with the specified value |
Ends With | Ends with the specified value |
Does Not Equal | Does not match the specified value |
Does Not Contain | Does not contain the specified value |
Using OR and AND Conditions
OR condition: Click Add filter (OR) to add an additional OR condition
AND condition: Select another category from the category selector — this creates an AND condition
Example: To apply when Product Code is AmazonEC2 AND Usage Type is Fee, configure both conditions in the same filter rule.
How Global and Payer-Specific Settings Interact
When both a global setting and a Payer-specific setting exist, the Payer Account and its Linked Accounts will have both the global setting and the Payer-specific setting applied.
Example:
Scope | Setting |
Global setting | Auto-apply Usage Type = Fee |
Payer A additional setting | Auto-apply Usage Type = Credit |
Result:
Payer A — items where Usage Type is Fee or Credit are auto-applied
All other Payer Accounts — only items where Usage Type is Fee are auto-applied
