Example
Suppose you are a billing administrator of a company selling computer hardware with a TCV of $5400 for 36 billing terms. You have already invoiced the customer for $2066.67 over a 16-months billing period and the remaining billable amount is $3333.33, to be billed over 20 months. The legacy contract was started in 2018 but the last known major price or config happened on 7/20/21. So the asset's start date is 7/20/21. The first Billing Date is 11/20/0222. The legacy in Conga should have details as mentioned in the table.

Ideally, you should have invoiced the customer for an amount of ($150 * 16 = $2400), but due to inconsistent billing, the invoiced amount is $2066.67. Hence Billing creates a catch-up amount of $333.33 ($2400 – $2066.67) to align it with the recurring billing. Conga Billing creates 22 billing schedules, BS-001 for the already billed amount in the legacy system with the Type field set to Informational, BS-002 for the catch-up amount with the Type field set to Contracted, and subsequent normal billing schedules for 20 months.
