Custom Plan Billing Amount Criterion – Bill the Un-invoiced and Un-billed

Introduced a new parameter called Bill the Un-invoiced and Un-billed, to the Billing Amount Criterion field in the custom plans. This feature enables the system to calculate and create new installments by determining both pending invoice amounts from previous sales and new amounts from ongoing sales for term-based plans with ABO supporting Full Term, Mid Term, and Mid Period scenarios in plan amendments and billing frequency changes.

Billing Rule Change Support

Support is added to change the billing rule on an existing subscription. Change in the billing rule during an ongoing contract is considered a disruption because it can have a significant impact on the flow of the revenue of the contract. When a change in billing rule is initiated (as a part of an ABO or individual change), the existing billing schedule records are superseded and new records are created, irrespective of any global billing setting or configuration.

For more information, see Change in Billing Rule.

Change in Billing Preference During Subscription Change Operation

Support is added for changing the Billing Preference on existing subscriptions when the new preference differs from the old preference in key billing fields, such as Billing Cycle Start, Billing Day of Month, Calendar Cycle Start, Proration Computation Method, and Prorate When Billing As One Time. This update applies to non-usage products and aligns the behavior during changes leading to disruption in billing, impacting billing schedule records (BSRs) as per the latest amenments.

Compliance Rules and Changes in Payment Term

Payment Term records now support compliance rules for Active and Is Default fields, ensuring only one active default term exists at any time. API support is available for creating, editing, retrieving, activating/deactivating, and defaulting Payment Term records, with all changes tracked in user details fields. Deletion of Payment Term records is not permitted from audit point of view.
