Hi 👋 yes, you'll have your second phase start on the desired date that you want to generate an Invoice each month, and you'll set the billing_cycle_anchor parameter for that phase to phase_start.

so addd one phase on current start date and then add another phase put 1st of each month and add billing cycle anchor to first phase or second phase

Second phase

karmic blaze Jul 24, 2023, 1:47 PM

#

set billing cycle anchor in second phase to 1st of next month with interval 1 month and it will do 1st to 1st every month right?

Yes, you can use test clocks to confirm the Subscription Schedule is behaving the way you want:

just a quick question

#

we see in some webhook even there is hosted url with invoice pdf, can we send that pdf to customer for paying the subscription is that ok, does it charge 0.4%

dim delta Jul 24, 2023, 2:05 PM

#

Yes, you can send the customer to the URL provided in the hosted_invoice_url to direct them to the Hosted Invoice Page for that Invoice. I do not know whether that incurs additional fees, and would recommend consulting our Support team on that matter who is more familiar with fee structures than we are:
https://support.stripe.com/?contact=true

The invoice_pdf field does not support accepting payments, it is only a location to download the PDF of the Invoice from.

one more question

#

we are adding another subscription item to subscription and its going to next month invoice not current month, how to make the second subscription item also go to current invoice only

#

dim delta Jul 24, 2023, 2:20 PM

#

Can you elaborate? Like are you trying to include a prorated amount for the new item you're adding? By default those are applied to the next Invoice for the Subscription. You can override that default behavior so an Invoice is immediately generated with the full price of the new item, but doing so will move the billing cycle anchor of the Subscription.

#

the first subscription item was created when the subscription is created, the second subscription item i added after one hour, so when ever we add the second subscription item, is it possible to make it come in current month invoice instead of next month, if you see the screenshot its billed first subscription this month and then next subscription which we added it billed it next month and again billed both subscriptions to next month

dim delta Jul 24, 2023, 2:24 PM

#

No, when you first create a Subscription the first Invoice is immediately generated and finalized, you aren't able to add anything else to that Invoice at that point.
