Hi there
What's your usecase for setting it to something other than phase_start? Why not start the phase at the billing cycle anchor?

I want to change the subscription charge time of the day, I had discussion on previous thread about this.

I don't know to mention the thread here so you can see
feral ivy
Just explain your usecase
Why wouldn't phase_start work? You can set end date of previous phase

I want to change when the invoices are charged for a subscription for every subscription update.
Like charge them weekly on 8am PT

Right, so why does what I linked not work? To me it seems fine
tender tinsel
It doesn't accept timestamp
feral ivy
Did you read the link?
You set timestamp for current phase's end
That would be the next phase's start
Which would be the billing cycle anchor
So you absolutely can set timestamp

But I only have one phase

If you are updating an existing subscription you'd add a new phase
The new phase would represent the billing cycle anchor change
And you'd end the current one
The end date of the current phase would be the billing cycle anchor
if setting the anchor to phase_start
Recommend reading the doc I sent

I think you misunderstood my usecase. Let me clarify. Basically, I have a weekly subscription which starts in the future and I want to charge customer at 01:00 pm, for example
feral ivy
Oh so it's not an existing subscription
You want to set billing cycle anchor on creation?
tender tinsel
Yes

Then just set start date: https://docs.stripe.com/billing/subscriptions/subscription-schedules/use-cases#start-subscription-future

I want to set when the subscription charge happens every week?
Like every week it should charge at 01:00 pm
