Can anyone explain why the "total amount billed" in the billing section is different than "amount spent" in ads manager? I've never seen this before but the numbers don't agree with each other. Thanks!

Best answer
Billed = taken away from your CC spent = spent by ads for example, today you spend 8$, but billing thereshold is 25$ so amount spent today is 8$, billed is 0$

Ad spend on billing is around 10K for April. On Ads manager it's listed at 6K for April. Seems like way to big of a discrepancy across a month.

You can collect a big amount of money for example at 26-31 of may and be billed in 1st june, so it will be 5k billed at june with 200 bucks spend

Figured out the issue Martin! My assistant deleted a bunch of campaigns to clean up the ads manager. The summary at the bottom wasn't taking into account those campaigns. Painful lesson but will always use the reporting tab moving forward. Thanks for your help :D
