No Credit on Cancellation
You can charge your customer a penalty if they cancel the services mid-contract. If customers terminate the asset mid-cycle, the billing schedules after the termination date are not canceled and customers still need to pay them. To enable early termination rule, see Set Up Billing Preference.
