New Features and Enhancements

In this release, Conga Billing offers the following new features and enhancements.

Extending the New Wallet Drawdown Approach to Usage Products

Conga Billing now supports the wallet balance consumption for the wallet-linked usage products guided by a custom setting.

When the setting is True, the wallet drawdown is created only when the billing schedules are invoiced. There is no effect of usage inputs being rated or unrated, on the wallet balance, until the billing schedules of the wallet-linked usage product are invoiced. 

If the setting is False, the wallet drawdown is created immediately when the usage inputs are Rated.

For more information see Wallets for Usage Inputs.

Description

NAMAF-1567

While running the batch job for the invoice tax calculation, you get the following error message:

 Too Many DML Rows: 10001.

Resolution Info: 

Tax calculation logic is optimized to update only those asset line items that are related to current batch-scoped invoice line items in an individual batch.

NAMAF-1515

While creating Ad-hoc invoices with Custom Record type, you get the following error message:

The requested resource does not exist.

Resolution Info: 

The code is revised so that the engine retrieves the Invoice Summary Criterion dropdown values from the Invoice object rather than the Invoice Run object.

NAMAF-1459

The billing API does not support the CPQ's "Calendar" selling term calculation method.

Resolution Info

The selling term calculation logic is revised to support "if-else" conditions. If the value in the config system property for the Selling Term Calculation Method field is set to Billing Preference, then the selling term is calculated per the billing preference; else, the "Calendar" based selling term is computed.

NAMAF-1446

While performing an amendment for a period in the last billing cycle of an asset, the engine does not honor the billing preference. It creates an extra billing schedule record and a forecasted billing schedule record.

Resolution Info

The code is revised to alter the engine behavior so that if an amendment happens in the last billing schedule period, it must honor the calendar cycle start month.

Known Issues

There are no known issues in this release.
