Overview
Billing records can be created from Recurring Billings based upon the Preferred Start Time and the Next Run Date.
A daily confirmation email is sent to the email address of the user who created the Recurring Billing job, which indicates the number of records that were processed. If a recurring record fails to create a Billing an activity record will be created on the recurring record to identify the specific error so that the issue can be corrected.
To exclude a specific Recurring Billing record from being included in the automated job, select the Exclude from Automation checkbox on the Recurring Billing detail page. Also, inactive records will automatically be excluded.
Best Practice: It is recommended to have the daily Scheduled Post job created in Accounting Settings, which provides the ability for the Billings that were created to automatically post with the next run of the Scheduled Post job. The Scheduled Post job should be the last automated job that is scheduled.
