Updates to the Ad hoc Invoice Creator

Ad hoc invoicing allows you to generate an invoice at any time. You can now create one-off invoices with your Product Catalog items and enjoy streamlined classifications across platforms.

What we've added:

  • Pick items from the Advanced Billing product catalog
  • Use price points from the catalog to suggest proper pricing
  • Enhanced tax functionality (settings are inherited from the item's tax settings in the catalog)
  • Coupons

It is now possible to generate a payable invoice in advance of your customers' next billing date. This is perfect for companies who would like to collect payment prior to the service period starting or have specific contractual payment obligations for their customers. 

With advanced invoicing, you can generate the invoice anytime between the last billing date and the next upcoming billing date.

Over the past 2 years, we released Events-Based Billing, an out-of-the-box rating engine for multi-attribute pricing, and Business Intelligence, a custom analytics suite for Chargify and third-party data. These products empower our customers to price like the industry titans (Think: Snowflake, Twilio, Datadog) and make data-driven business decisions.

View Automatically Applied Prepayments in Consolidated Invoice History

Consolidated invoices are a win-win for both you and your end-customer. For you, consolidated invoicing presents less processing fees when one customer pays for their multiple subscriptions all-in-one. For your end-customers, they get a single invoice for all subscriptions that they can pay for in one transaction. 

Adding to our consolidated invoicing functionality, we are excited to announce some additions to the invoice history you can call via the API. These consolidated invoices now include prepayments automatically applied to member subscriptions. When member subscriptions renew, any prepayments would apply directly to the child invoice. 

Please note that since this action was not directly on the parent subscription, the history/event for automatically applied prepayments was not previously shown on the consolidated invoice. This event can now be found for the consolidated invoice in the Read Invoice Events endpoint under the event name "link_child_payment".

We are excited to announce that we have new supported actions that have similar behavior when updating a subscription using the Zapier Connector. Those new triggers are:

  • expires_at

These additional attributes will allow for further customization with your Zaps to enable streamlined operational processes. This is in early access stages, so anyone interested should contact their CSM or our support team (support@chargify.com) for an invitation to our 1.0.4 Zapier Connector. It will become generally available In the coming weeks.
