Delayed Usage
Delayed Usage functionality allows you to process usage after the end of the contract. If the usage is for a billing schedule with the status as 'Pending Billing', the fee amount is updated to the rated amount of the usage input. If the usage is for an invoiced billing schedule, a new billing schedule is created with the start date and end date as the usage date. The existing billing schedule is superseded. The ready-for-invoice date on the billing schedules is set to the usage date.
Note: For legacy assets when you try to process the Usage Input for
the Legacy Period (Usage date is earlier than First Billing Date) then Billing does not
process that Usage Input and updates the record Status as "Error". It displays an error
message Usage rating is not allowed if the “Usage Date” is earlier than the “First
Billing Date” in Conga.
