Symptoms

2. Create budget owner assignment.
3. Review allocation rules.

Verify the fix

• Open Logs & Traces and search by request ID, trace ID or resource ID.

• Confirm no retry loop or duplicate delivery was created.

When to escalate

Escalate when the issue affects production traffic, billing-sensitive reporting, audit evidence, or any workflow where a customer-facing AI feature is blocked.
