### Service "neo.fs.v2.accounting.AccountingService"
Accounting service provides methods for interaction with FrostFS sidechain
via other FrostFS nodes to get information about the account balance. Deposit
and Withdraw operations can't be implemented here, as they require Mainnet
FrostFS smart contract invocation. Transfer operations between internal
FrostFS accounts are possible if both use the same token type.

```
rpc Balance(BalanceRequest) returns (BalanceResponse);

```

#### Method Balance

Returns the amount of funds in GAS token for the requested FrostFS account.

Statuses:
- **OK** (0, SECTION_SUCCESS):
balance has been successfully read;
- Common failures (SECTION_FAILURE_COMMON).

### Message BalanceRequest
BalanceRequest message


| Field | Type | Label | Description |
| ----- | ---- | ----- | ----------- |
| body | [BalanceRequest.Body](#neo.fs.v2.accounting.BalanceRequest.Body) |  | Body of the balance request message. |
| meta_header | [neo.fs.v2.session.RequestMetaHeader](#neo.fs.v2.session.RequestMetaHeader) |  | Carries request meta information. Header data is used only to regulate message transport and does not affect request execution. |
| verify_header | [neo.fs.v2.session.RequestVerificationHeader](#neo.fs.v2.session.RequestVerificationHeader) |  | Carries request verification information. This header is used to authenticate the nodes of the message route and check the correctness of transmission. |


<a name="neo.fs.v2.accounting.BalanceRequest.Body"></a>

### Message BalanceRequest.Body
To indicate the account for which the balance is requested, its identifier
is used. It can be any existing account in FrostFS sidechain `Balance`
smart contract. If omitted, client implementation MUST set it to the
request's signer `OwnerID`.


| Field | Type | Label | Description |
| ----- | ---- | ----- | ----------- |
| owner_id | [neo.fs.v2.refs.OwnerID](#neo.fs.v2.refs.OwnerID) |  | Valid user identifier in `OwnerID` format for which the balance is requested. Required field. |


<a name="neo.fs.v2.accounting.BalanceResponse"></a>

### Message BalanceResponse
BalanceResponse message


| Field | Type | Label | Description |
| ----- | ---- | ----- | ----------- |
| body | [BalanceResponse.Body](#neo.fs.v2.accounting.BalanceResponse.Body) |  | Body of the balance response message. |
| meta_header | [neo.fs.v2.session.ResponseMetaHeader](#neo.fs.v2.session.ResponseMetaHeader) |  | Carries response meta information. Header data is used only to regulate message transport and does not affect request execution. |
| verify_header | [neo.fs.v2.session.ResponseVerificationHeader](#neo.fs.v2.session.ResponseVerificationHeader) |  | Carries response verification information. This header is used to authenticate the nodes of the message route and check the correctness of transmission. |


<a name="neo.fs.v2.accounting.BalanceResponse.Body"></a>

### Message BalanceResponse.Body
The amount of funds in GAS token for the `OwnerID`'s account requested.
Balance is given in the `Decimal` format to avoid precision issues with
rounding.


| Field | Type | Label | Description |
| ----- | ---- | ----- | ----------- |
| balance | [Decimal](#neo.fs.v2.accounting.Decimal) |  | Amount of funds in GAS token for the requested account. |

### Message Decimal
Standard floating point data type can't be used in FrostFS due to inexactness
of the result when doing lots of small number operations. To solve the lost
precision issue, special `Decimal` format is used for monetary computations.

Please see [The General Decimal Arithmetic
Specification](http://speleotrove.com/decimal/) for detailed problem
description.


| Field | Type | Label | Description |
| ----- | ---- | ----- | ----------- |
| value | [int64](#int64) |  | Number in the smallest Token fractions. |
| precision | [uint32](#uint32) |  | Precision value indicating how many smallest fractions can be in one integer. |
