Where the dashboard's headline revenue number comes from

Dashboards throw around "revenue at risk" numbers that are often rough estimates or stale exports. The one on the Subscription Health Check dashboard isn't either — it's a direct sum of real data from the most recent scan.

Every flagged row carries its own value

When the scanner scores a subscription, it stores that subscription's own recurring value — its MRR — alongside the risk classification, the severity, and how many days until the event. The revenue figure travels with the risk, row by row.

The dashboard total is just addition

"MRR at risk" is the sum of that value across every currently active, flagged subscription from the latest completed scan. There's no separate reporting job computing it on a schedule of its own and no cache that can drift out of sync — it's read straight from the same table the risk table itself is built from.

Why the number moves the way it does

A subscription that resolves — its retry finally succeeds, or the customer updates an expiring card before renewal — drops off the active list on the next scan, and its value leaves the total with it. A subscription that gets cancelled while at risk moves out the same way. The number reflects what's actually happening right now, not what was happening when a report was last generated.

What it's actually for

Row counts alone can be misleading — 20 subscriptions at $9/month and 3 at $400/month are very different problems wearing the same "23 at risk" badge. Sorting by MRR at risk lets a store owner or an agency managing several stores decide what to chase first by the dollar value actually on the line, not just by how many rows are in the table.
