A job's output receipt is of an object its served hop states it delivered (route-record version 2's `outputs`, by content hash), once, or the source is refused `output_not_delivered`; under tariff version 4 a record of version 1 holds its outputs to none. Routing figures (cost, expected cost and time, failures) are never charges: a line bills the billed attempt at the tariff's price. The room-session receipt's version 2 states `bytes_out`, the bytes its hops sent the session's sessions from their ledgers, prices them per 10^9 bytes in its tariff and counts them in each grant's consumption and funds. Tariff and invoice version 4 bill a room's bytes out, a package's work once per run that made it (a routed job of `package.build`, per job and per work unit, its receipt the product each run cites, a replayed run refused), a package's storage by byte-days for each invoice period it is held through, read from the chain, and state every hop's energy, the hops not billed in a scope of their own. The ledger corpus adds jobs routed under the route record's version 2 and version 4's chain with their controls; the metering corpus adds receipts of version 2; both second implementations read the new versions and catch every new rule.
