Example Scenario: Acme Inc. is a brand that works with Russel Sprout as a partner. Russel Sprout drove an action on January 1 that wasn't tracked. He submits an Action Inquiry to Acme with the missing details for review. On March 5, Acme reviews Russel Sprout's action inquiry and determines that the action did occur, and that their partner should be paid out. If Acme accepts the action inquiry with the original January 1 transaction date:
