Billing Schedule use cases

Delete partially processed invoice schedules

Learn the process of deleting invoice schedules in Partially Processed status by changing their status to Pending.

Note: The Billing Schedule feature is generally available. You can enable this feature in Sandbox and Production environments with the self-serve interface. For more information, see Enable billing features by yourself.

In normal circumstances, you cannot delete an invoice schedule in Partially Processed status. To delete such an invoice schedule, you have to first perform certain actions to change its status to Pending, and then delete the invoice schedule.

To delete an invoice schedule in Partially Processed status, perform the following steps:

  1. Activate the Annual List Price settings .
  2. Create two recurring product rate plan charges with the Flat Fee Pricing charge model.
  3. Create and activate an order with two subscriptions to the two charges for account A1, with the total amount of $2,500.00 and the same term of 24 months from 1 January 2022 to 31 December 2023. Order O-001 is created with subscriptions S1 and S2 for account A1.
