Can you share a request id where you did this? There's no subscription-level setting for proration_behavior. You need to pass that param on every update request to tell us what proration behavior you want for that request, specifically
dim wedge
reading this there is; under "More parameters" for Create a subscription:
https://docs.stripe.com/api/subscriptions/create
assuming that is not incorrect, I would assume that the proration_behaviour is inherited on updates to the subscription

assuming that is not incorrect, I would assume that the proration_behaviour is i...
that's an incorrect assumption
dim wedge
it does however say: "Unsupported for subscription creation" - does that mean i should do "create_prorations" as the value upon creating the subscription, and then set proration_behavior for the update of the subscription to make Stripe generate the invoice?
tropic bone
You can't create a proration when creating the subscription. There would be nothing to prorate
You have to set proration_behavior on every update request if you want to specify proration behavior
There's not global setting for a sub
dim wedge
okay, thank you - i'll try. sorry for the misunderstanding
tropic bone
No worries

another question: when retrieving invoices, the subtotal and subtotal_excluding_tax are the same number, but tax is applied on the invoice pdf. is a setting incorrect, or am I fetching the wrong value?
tropic bone
If you use exclusive tax, then those values will be the same
subtotal_excluding_tax will tell you the amount without inclusive tax if you use that
dim wedge
okay, i simply added subtotal_excluding_tax and tax together to get the right number
dim wedge
okay; what would be the correct way then? should i do subtotal plus tax then? not sure how to incorporate the discounts into the calculation
tropic bone
Why not look at amount_due? https://docs.stripe.com/api/invoices/object#invoice_object-amount_due. What's the goal here?
