Looking at the documentation https://stripe.com/docs/billing/subscriptions/usage-based#report it appears that it's not.

I'll close out our other thread for now. In the future, if you have an open thread at a given point in time, feel free to continue to asking questions there.

That sounds great, thanks

I'm trying to figure out if turning off automatic invoice advancement would allow me to add usage records more than 5 minutes after an invoice billing period ends

That's right, this isn't possible. Usage records must be added before the end of the billing period

Dang - no way to workaround it? I'm thinking of a couple of use cases that may not know usage until the end of a day. If the job that sends that usage info to stripe takes more than 5 minutes to process, the record won't add to the invoice.

actually, looks like there's another factor: if the price's recurring.aggregate_usage is set to sum, usage can be reported up until 5 minutes after the end of the billing period
