Hi 👋 no, setting proration_behavior to always_invoice will always immediately generate an Invoice for the prorations and attempt to collect payment for that Invoice.
What is it that you're trying to build a flow to accomplish?

i want that payment statue should be as open or drafted insted of fail

Sorry, I'm still not clear, you do want to create prorations and immediately generate an Invoice for them? But not charge the Customer for that Invoice?
wispy sail
subscription = subscription.modify(
subscription_id,
items=[subscription_item],
payment_behavior='pending_if_incomplete',
billing_cycle_anchor="now",
)
in this code is executed the stripe tries to make the payment and the payment fail occur
but if we want the payment status to be open or drafted

In that snippet you're resetting the billing_cycle_anchor, which moves the Subscription to a new billing period and generates an Invoice for that. If the Subscription's collection_method is set to charge_automatically, then the the payment for that Invoice will be automatically attempted.
I think you will need to change the collection_method of the Subscription if your desire is to change the fact that the Subscription automatically attempts payments. But doing so will also change the behavior of the renewal payments for the Subscription.

`subscription = subscription.modify(
subscription_id,
proration_behavior='always_invoice',
items=[subscription_item],
payment_behavior='pending_if_incomplete',
)`
in this can there be any way that we can make the payment statue as open or as drafted

So you managed to do it?
wispy sail
no i am asking how we can do it
mighty forge
Did you try setting collection_method to send_invoice?
