Can't re-open but we can continue the conversation here.

Threshold is changing the bill instead of just pre-charging. Without threshold user will be charged for 51 units which is max in period. Whereas with threshold, user is being charged for 51+50=101 units

#

How i expect this to work is, substract pre-charged bill from cycle end bill thats it. Not change the amount itself.

Okay but when you add usage, since you have a billing threshold, this increments the usage. And your threshold is set to not reset the billing cycle anchor.

#

So let's back up one second

#

What is the exact behavior you want?

#

Do you want an invoice to be cut when a threshold is eclipsed?

#

Or do you want to only invoice at the end of the billing cylce?

remote pawn Mar 30, 2023, 2:20 PM

#

Okay but when you add usage, since you have a billing threshold, this increments the usage.
Usages aren't supposed to be incremented in max aggregate type. Stripe is supposed to take max of all reported usages

ruby oar Mar 30, 2023, 2:21 PM

#

No, you can't use set with thresholds. See: https://stripe.com/docs/api/usage_records/create#usage_record_create-action

#

The only option is to use increment when using billing thresholds

remote pawn Mar 30, 2023, 2:21 PM

#

set and increment are for a particular timestamp not entire period

ruby oar Mar 30, 2023, 2:22 PM

#

You are right. My bad.

#

Okay let me take another look here

ruby oar Mar 30, 2023, 2:47 PM

#

@remote pawn to me this seems like simply a conflict between using a threshold and setting a max aggregate. You want the behavior here to be that you are able to adjust from 51 --> 50 without recharging, even if both are over the threshold?

remote pawn Mar 30, 2023, 2:54 PM

#

yup

ruby oar Mar 30, 2023, 2:55 PM

#

So yeah this simply isn't really possible since you can't overwrite usage here with billing thresholds.

remote pawn Mar 30, 2023, 2:57 PM

#

so for max settings adding threshold changes the meaning completely

ruby oar Mar 30, 2023, 2:57 PM

#

Yeah pretty much

#

It basically becomes "max if below threshold"

#

But those two don't really play nicely together for what you want

remote pawn Mar 30, 2023, 3:10 PM

#

cool then. Thats why it feels wrong. I just wanted to confirm if I am doing anything wrong.

ruby oar Mar 30, 2023, 3:13 PM

#

Yeah sorry I misunderstood what you were trying to do initially
