Tried with a test clock.

Ok taking a look

#

Can you share the exact subscription id where this happened?

#

I see a couple

#

The same operation was performed on different dates. But you only need to look at sub_1NhumyJrgt3ZD9jfR6HpNqiN.

#

So in that example it looks like you set cancellation to the 10th and disabled prorations, but you still are getting charged a prorated invoice?

#

That's the issue, right?

restive vessel Aug 22, 2023, 2:05 PM

#

Yes

merry compass Aug 22, 2023, 2:10 PM

#

Are you seeing this issue when not using test clocks?

#

Trying to see if this is only an issue w/ test clocks

#

It also happens without test_clock. A similar operation on Subscription sub_1NfeXeJrgt3ZD9jfHHWC3ywo also results in a prorated Invoice.

#

Interesting. Ok looking

#

Talking with a colleague. Will get back to you soon

#

So apparently setting cancel_at to a time before the end of the billing period always creates a proration

#

And there's no way to disable it

#

This could be clearer in our docs, so flagging it to the team

#

ok, thank you very much.
Does this mean that cancel_at and proration_behavior cannot be used at the same time for operations via the API as well as the dashboard?

So to clarify, the description for cancel_at here is what's accurate: https://stripe.com/docs/api/subscriptions/update#update_subscription-cancel_at. Setting cancel_at in the current period allows you to enable/disable prorations. But since you're setting it for the upcoming period, prorations will always be created (as described in that api spec).
