Hi, We need to have a way of displaying the subscription owner information on credit and debit memo templates. On invoices, we have used the merge field << InvoiceItem.AccountName>> on each invoice item to display this information, but it doesn't work the same for credit and debit memo templates. The main reason why we need this is that we have a lot of sales done through partners or accounting offices. In these cases, the partner or the accounting office is the one receiving the invoice for the end customer(s), so the information of who is the subscription owner (the end customer) is crucial for them to be able to invoice further. I hope this is something that is considered. Thank you! Madalina

Zuora's proration calculations are on the Rate Plan Charge level and therefore Rounding Rules are applied on this level as well. However, it doesn't make sense that a customer can be charged or credited for a penny whenever Orders are created to reflect a net-zero impact. For Example as part of 1 Order: Subscription A is cancelled for $500 & Subscription B is created for $500. * In this scenario, depending on the # of days in the bill cycle, it can cause a penny Invoice or Credit Memo to be generated, regardless of Rounding Rule configurations. I'm sure there are a couple of solutions/designs for this but here are a couple I can think of: (1) Logic to enforce $0 billing transactions for Net-$0 impacting Orders (2) Enable flexibility surrounding Rounding Rules (Order-level vs Rate Plan Charge-level) Related API: https://www.zuora.com/developer/api-reference/#operation/POST_Order (RunBilling = TRUE)

In our invoice and memo pdfs we are adding InvoiceItem.Name CreditMemoItemName as merge fields on the line items. When a charge is prorated, the word "Proration" is added as part of the line item name. I get why, but as our document pds mostly are in local language (not English) this word does not always make alot of sense. One solution is of course to add a DisplayName__c on the Product Rate Plan Charge and use that field in stead. This is working. But I much rather have RatePlanCharge.Name as an available Merge Fields for Invoices, Credit- and debit memos. Is this something Zuora can consider? Karina 🙂

Currently HPM2.0 only has support for this hardcoded list of credit card types: AmericanExpress Dankort Visa MasterCard Discover JCB Diners There are Payment Gateways in Zuora (e.g. Ingenico ePayments) that allow more Credit Cards Types like Maestro and Carte Bancaire. Although you can activate them in the Gateway Settings, you won't be able to input any valid Credit Card of these types if you have Frontend Validation/Detection active for your Hosted Page as there are no BIN Range checks implemented. Please allow all valid BIN Ranges to be mapped to a Card Type like defined here: https://www.bincodes.com/bin-list/ You already seem to have a convenient library in place to add these ranges, looking at the "isCardMatching" function in the HPM2Preload JS script.

Hi, It would be very beneficial to be able to specify the date of an external credit balance refund. As the name specifies, the refund is external, so not linked to any other interface or gateway provider. For example, I manually enter a refund to a customer in my bank today, 11th of january, however it is paid out on the 12th, and reconciliation takes place 2-3 business days later. So if the payout was on the 12th, yet reconciliation occurs on the 13th, i have a discrepancy as my bank statement has the 12th, yet it is only possible to set the 13th as refund date in Zuora. I dont understand why the credit balance refund date cannot be changed/specified for external refunds, just the same way as payment refunds are. Thanks for taking this into consideration. Kind Regards, This would be very beneficial.

Hi, We are having an issue related to the discount end date. Some of our business units offer discounts to the customer which are not aligned to the billing period of the customer; such as the billing period is quarterly, but the discount should be applied for 4 months, or the billing period is annual and the discount should be applied only to 6 months out of 12. There is the end date setting on the rate plan charge of the discount product, but that is not considered (even if it is set as a fixed period after the charge is triggered or specific date). What happens is that the discount will be applied to the full billing period. We need to find a way to cover this use case. From my perspective, using that discount end date setting would be the best, because that is supposed to end the charge when we are saying to it to end. Thank you.

We have a Business Unit that work with quite big orders. They do big software implementations out at customers and they start invoicing charges upon implementation delivery. So basically they create subscriptions and orders to get services provisioned but the charges will be triggered for billing on different dates. For this use case they would like the ability to set Billing Trigger Condition to Upon Specific Date on the Product Rate Plan Charge with no date specified. So on Subscription creation they will populate the planned date. Today this condition is only available on Subscription Rate Plan Charge. In short: for the products where we do not know when we will start billing (and each charge in a product potentially can start billing on different dates) it would be beneficial to have "Upon a Specific Date" available as trigger condition in the Product Rate Plan Charge. Thank you for considering! Karina

When someone reverses an invoice this is a one-way action that's impossible to undo. This in turn means we can't unpost > cancel > delete the invoice, which in turn means we can't delete the associated order. This is something that's occassionally caused us a real headache as we then need to work out how to do a corrective order to try and undo the effects of the previous one (which is possible in some cases but not in all including undoing a renewal). It would therefore be very helpful if it was possible to undo an invoice reversal.

Hello, We would like to be able to configure multiple callouts notifications (notifications on all events) on the same object. To be more precise, we would like, for example, when a customer is created, the system to send the notification to two different systems by using two different callback URL for "Account is created". By multiple systems, I mean one ERP system which should have the account created for sending the customer transactions and one system that will be doing the provisioning for that customer. Thank you.

If you have an invoice that needs writing off (due to customer not paying or due to a system correction) it's super simple - you click More - Write off. However if the system correction results in a credit memo, it's tricky to write this off. You have to manually craft a debit memo (not a particularly easy task) and then apply the CM to the DM. It would be great if Credit memos had a built in Write off feature like Invoices do.

Customer have 14 days to change their mind on a purchase and therefore a renewal may need to be rolled back / undone (this happens in our business from time to time). Out the box the only way to achieve this is to delete the renewal order. This has several downsides. The first and most important is that it's not tracked in any way so we can't report on it. Secondly, if we accidentally reverses the invoice for the renawal, the invoice can't be deleted and therefore you can't delete the order either (we've seen this a few times). We can't cancel the subscription because we sell perpeptual licenses for some of our products and cancelling a subscription cancels the license. Also the customer still may come back and purchase support at a future date. Our current workaround is to create a "corrective order" and assuming the renewal term ran from 1st Jan 2020 to 31st Dec 2020, then you can change the current term so it's only 1 day long (eg 1st Jan 2020 to 2nd Jan 2020) and then write off the resultant invoice. However ideally Zuora would provide a way to either: - delete an order (but make that an audited/traceable action) or - set the dates back to what they were before the renewal was done

We would really like the ability to suspend and resume a subscription on the same day. I see this Community post - but I could not find it posted as an idea. So the use case we would like Zuora to support is the fact that we often see the need to resume a suspended subscription on the same day. Scenarios could be: Customer pays immediately Subscription was suspended by mistake (not frequent but can happen) The solutions proposed in the linked community post: Use Suspend date from yesterday Delete the Suspend amendment rather then resume etc ...are not really viable for us. Nbr 1 will create a proration for deviating amounts (missing one day as far as I see in my tests) Nbr 2 we are loosing tracebility and suspention history. So this would be a huge benefit for us - if we get this supported! Do you have any plans for this? Kind regards Karina

Users in the Zuora Web UI frequently receive this error when attempting to delete items from the WebUI: "Only the most recent legal document for an account can be unposted." This error is not very helpful since "legal document" is not defined. What does zuora consider a legal document? It appears this includes invoices, credit memos and possible orders? Generally legal documents are signed contracts or court orders. There is really nothing in zuora that can be considered a legal document. It would be more helpful to update this error to define the zuora objects that must be deleted first. For example : "The most recent invoice, credit memo, or order must be deleted first."

I think it would be very helpful to be able to forecast future billings/invoices. I understand that we are able to see the future invoices generated by a Billing Run, but I am speaking more of a report that will include the Preview Invoices as seen under Subscription Preview. Thanks, Kevin

We have a product which has a tiered usage charge of less than 1 cent per unit. We'd like to use UsageSummary.RateDetail on our invoice template to display the total usage charge at each tier level. Unfortunately, the result is a rounded unit price at two decimal places which is incorrect for our use case.

It would be nice to be able to specifically select a due date for invoices. We are a due upon receipt company however we charge monthly rent that we bill ahead of time due on the first. Our invoice date is then the first so our due date can be the first instead of the invoice date being today and the due date being the first. We went the rest of our invoices to be due upon receipt however.

We create the billing document pdf ourselves outside from Zuora. When we attach our pdf to the invoice object in Zuora, we want it to be the only and most recent pdf attached to the invoice. Thus, automated pdf generation by Zuora needs to be disabled. Because it would only create pdf files we do not want and it would fill up the activity history.

Curerntly the Bill Run and Billing Preview are not taking into the account upcoming suspension. It would be nice if it did. E.g: the monthly subscription BCD =10. The person already paid from 1/10 till 2/10. Suspension is scheduled to be effective on 2/15. Resume is scheduled to be effective on 3/15. If I'll create invoice or request a Billing Preview with the target date before the suspension begin date, the customer will be charged for the whole month and getting a credit memo in the next invoice. In that example this customers next payment will occur on 2/10. With that target date the customer will be charged from 2/10 till 3/9 when he will be suspended from 2/15-3/15. it's be nice to pass the target of 2/10 and have customer to be prorated (2/10-2/15) because these are the only dates his subscription will be active during that month.
