Is that time range < 24 hours ago

we have https://docs.stripe.com/billing/subscriptions/usage-based/recording-usage#fix-incorrect-usage

but it has this limitation: You can only cancel events that have been sent to Stripe within the last 24 hours.

i need to cancel an event from three days ago

[radiant carbon]

Yeah you can't. You could create negative invoice items for the customer to credit them for that incorrectly reported usage though, so they're not charged for it in the next invoice

https://docs.stripe.com/api/invoiceitems/create#create_invoiceitem-amount

Those invoice items should be automatically pulled into the next subscription invoice

[wet cosmos]

so if a have a scheduled 1000$ bill and i create a negative 1000$ dollar invoice the user will be charged 0?

[radiant carbon]

invoice item not invoice

but yeah

[wet cosmos]

the invoice must recieve a price, can i create those with the api ?

[radiant carbon]

nope you can pass an amount

see the link i sent you

i linked the amount param

[wet cosmos]

thank you, you happen to know any particular reason why events cannot be cancelled 24 hours after they are created?

[radiant carbon]

I do not unfortunately
