Consolidated billing

Consolidated billing queues mid-cycle invoices for an account and combines them into the next bill run instead of issuing many small invoices.

Consolidated billing automatically combines queued invoices in a bill run.

There are situations where you are not interested in processing or issuing an invoice on its own.

• The amount may be smaller than the processing fees incurred.
• A customer make many changes to their subscription via the customer portal, which results in a many small invoices.

When the consolidated billing setting is enabled for an account, any invoices generated in the middle of a billing cycle will automatically go into the queued state and will be included in the next bill run.

Once a queued invoice is invoiced, it will transition to the consolidated state.
