Royalty Reports in Velveteen
Updated June 12, 2026
Royalty reports in Velveteen come from imported statement files. Velveteen stores the report period, generates user royalty report summaries, and can attach statement PDFs for accounting records.
Reports are period-based. They are not real-time play counts and should not be expected to match DSP dashboards on the same day.
