The ledger anchor expects a net settlement of 19992 USD, but pagolat applied an extra flat fee of -25000 MXN (~1470 USD) on top of the already-fee-adjusted payment lines, bringing the settled total down to 18522 USD equivalent. This looks like an additional processor fee that wasn't accounted for on the ledger side rather than a timing, duplicate, or FX issue.

Next: Confirm with pagolat whether the extra 25000 MXN fee (sourceId syn_8bf0ebce3c8b7d309fff0185d88fde16) is a legitimate additional charge, and if so update the ledger expected net for group PL-mx-merchant-014-2026-05-22 to include it.
