After I add a subscription item, in the upcoming invoice, I have a remaining time on the item and an entry for the item, so for the same item I have 2 invoice lines. why?

Hey! Taking over for my colleague. Let me catch up.
in the upcoming invoice, I have a remaining time on the item and an entry for the item, so for the same item I have 2 invoice lines. why?
That's expected, the upcoming invoice endpoint display the next month and not the current month's invoice, so the prorated item for the current month and an additional item for the next month.
night slate
But my total should be $35 = 30 (first main subscrption) + 5 (item)
But the total is $40. I only have the base subscription + 1 additional item.
It is adding the Monthly (30) + Additional Category (5) + Remaining time on Additional Category (5) after 25 Jun 2024 = 40
is it because the 1st month's Monthly has been charged, but the item has not yet. So it will be charged in the next invoice?
clear flicker
Yes. Upcoming invoice is the next month's invoice, so it includes the subscription item for the upcoming month(the regular recurring item), plus any extra items like proration
night slate
ok, thanks

Happy to help!

I try to change an item's schedule. I want to decrease the item subscription from 2 to 1. It is not doing anything. Please check.

This request Id, is for creating the Scheduler, could you please share the requestId of the update API call ?

Ok, maybe that is the problem.
I have a Monthly + 2 x Additional Category. Then I want to delete 1 Additional Category but keeping it active until the next billing date. I thought I need to use this API to change the schedule.
https://api.stripe.com/v1/subscription_schedules
Phase 0 only contains the Monthly.
Phase 1 contains Monthly + Additional Category with quantity decremented by the number of "deletion".

You need to use the update endpoint, otherwise you're just creating a new schedule each time: https://docs.stripe.com/api/subscription_schedules/update

I use this https://api.stripe.com/v1/subscription_schedules/[schedule_id]
with start_date = now
I am getting an error.
Status code 400

Did you look at the API? What exactly are you trying to do?
night slate
I have a Monthly + 2 x Additional Category. Then I want to delete 1 Additional Category but keeping it active until the next billing date.
I was told here before to change the schedule.
half girder
I think you probably just need to remove the start_date parameter from your update call then
night slate
when I do that, I get this error.
Status code 400
{
"error": {
"message": "The subscription schedule update is missing at least one phase with a start_date to anchor end dates to.",
"request_log_url": "https://dashboard.stripe.com/test/logs/req_5B8gSzKBwq2Dan?t=1719314063",
"type": "invalid_request_error"
}

I am doing in Bubble.
Phase 0 contains the Monthly (qty 1) + Additional Category (qty 2)
Phase 1 contains Monthly (qty 1) + Additional Category with quantity decremented by the number of "deletion"
In the example Additional Category qty (2) => (1)
half girder
I don't understand what you're trying to update then? The existing schedule already has those phases?
So, what's not working as you need?
night slate
hmmm... Let me rerun the testing again.
half girder
What is 'testing' exactly? What do you expect to happen that isn't happening?
night slate
I was doing a few times (including your suggestion) so i need to see which API call actually make the changes.
half girder
Well, the change is scheduled to happen on July 25 2024 as per your API requests. There's no API to call beyond that – it'll automatically downgrade
