Generation of a credit memo within the new invoice schedule

Zuora Scheduler generates a credit memo during the invoice schedule process to manage previously billed service periods.

When Zuora Scheduler processes the first invoice schedule item in IS2, it generates an invoice (INV2) for $8,000.00, along with a credit memo (CM1) for the previously billed service period of C3, from 1 June 2025 to 31 August 2025.

The following table lists the information on IS2:
