Hi, my current code looks like this:

forest halo Jul 22, 2024, 7:36 PM

#

Exactly what I was about to ask!

solemn charm Jul 22, 2024, 7:36 PM

#

      const previousSubscription = await stripeClient.subscriptions.retrieve( key.subscriptionId );
      request.log.info({ previousSubscription }, 'Previous Subscription.');
      // const prorationDate = Math.floor(Date.now() / 1000);

      const items = [{
        id: previousSubscription.items.data[0].id,
        price: STRIPE_AGENCY_PRICE_ID
      }];

      const invoice = await stripeClient.invoices.retrieveUpcoming({
        customer: user.stripeCustomerId,
        subscription: key.subscriptionId,
        subscription_details: {
          items
        },
        // subscription_proration_date: prorationDate,
        automatic_tax: {
          enabled: true
        }
      });

#

And can you give me more specifics on what exactly is double what you are expecting?

solemn charm Jul 22, 2024, 7:37 PM

#

Yeah so simply the results I'm getting are like this:

Your final total will be 550.13
Tax: 31.14
Subtotal: 550.13

#

which is from this http response

#

      return reply.code(200).send({
        status: 'success',
        data: {
          total: invoice.total / 100,
          tax: invoice.tax / 100,
          subtotal: invoice.amount_due / 100,
          // prorationDate: prorationDate
        }

#

The code I have to do the actual subscrption upgrade seems to be working fine already

#

We have had to abandon the billing config because we cannot allow downgrading

forest halo Jul 22, 2024, 7:40 PM

#

Can you send me the price ID that you are using for these tests?

#

And to be clear, that preview says $550 but when you actually do the upgrade it costs roughtly $225?

solemn charm Jul 22, 2024, 7:41 PM

#

The two products are 79 and 299

#

79: price_1PToEzI9XpkbIXSJ5xzabioU

forest halo Jul 22, 2024, 7:42 PM

#

Do you have the ID of a specific subscription that you tested this with?

solemn charm Jul 22, 2024, 7:42 PM

#

299: price_1PTpTsI9XpkbIXSJ27eJ9kML

#

sub_1PfQPrI9XpkbIXSJveezdEmz

#

probably

#

would have done it correctly with the upgrade code

#

and then you could use sub_1PfRfkI9XpkbIXSJsLeV1KDQ which is currently at the cheaper price

forest halo Jul 22, 2024, 7:44 PM

#

Thank you, taking a look

solemn charm Jul 22, 2024, 7:44 PM

#

Thank you as well

forest halo Jul 22, 2024, 7:45 PM

#

Yeah I am not sure why that may be the final calculation. Can you make the preview call on that subscription again, print out the full object that the API sends back to you, and paste the text of that output here?

solemn charm Jul 22, 2024, 7:47 PM

#

Yes

forest halo Jul 22, 2024, 7:47 PM

#

One thing I thought of is that that Customer might have extra pending invoice items that were getting added to the invoice but that does not appear to be the case for this customer

solemn charm Jul 22, 2024, 7:47 PM

#

You want the invoice object correct?

forest halo Jul 22, 2024, 7:47 PM

#

Yep yep

#

I can see that you are making the call right but I can't see the response that we send back to you for that call

solemn charm Jul 22, 2024, 7:48 PM

#

📎 message.txt

#

It seems to be adding the more expensive item to the line items twice

#

Its possible its not prorating it correctly and then its doing this years + next years

forest halo Jul 22, 2024, 7:51 PM

#

Ah I think what may be happening is that this is previewing if the prorations go on the next full invoice

solemn charm Jul 22, 2024, 7:51 PM

#

and I just need to make sure to pull out the data from line item #2, but that just doesn't seem very straight forward

forest halo Jul 22, 2024, 7:52 PM

#

I think you just need to specify the proration behavior somewhere but I am still looking

#

Can you try that call again but specify subscription_proration_behavior='always_invoice' https://docs.stripe.com/api/invoices/upcoming#upcoming_invoice-subscription_proration_behavior

#

I think that should solve the issue of the overall total.

#

Question, when you say you just need data from line #2, is there a reason that line #1 with the credited time is not also relevant here?

solemn charm Jul 22, 2024, 7:54 PM

#

lol yep its literally jsut that...

#

That page needs to be updated 😐

#

subscription_details: {
          items,
          proration_behavior: 'always_invoice'
        },

#

that should be the correct one for the newer API

#

looks like all the subscrption based things got put into that area

forest halo Jul 22, 2024, 7:58 PM

#

Yeah it is tricky, I think create_prorations is the default behavior for the update method as well so that is what the preview endpoint defaults to

solemn charm Jul 22, 2024, 8:00 PM

#

yeah you're right

#

im reading through the typescript stuff now

#

Okay I think I have one follow up

#

Your final total will be 233.18
Tax: 13.2
Subtotal: 219.98

#

well 2 I guess

#

Total = subtotal + tax correct?

#

And then second question, for doing the actual upgrade, is there an invoice # or something I can check to see if the payment went through?

forest halo Jul 22, 2024, 8:05 PM

#

From our API ref for subtotal:

Total of all subscriptions, invoice items, and prorations on the invoice before any invoice level discount or exclusive tax is applied. Item discounts are already incorporated
https://docs.stripe.com/api/invoices/object#invoice_object-subtotal

#

I think amount_due would be the best field to use from the invoice to tell your user how much they will actually pay

#

And for question #2, you can check the invoice's status to see if it is paid. The invoice has two numbers, one that begins with in_ and is how the API refers to the invoice, there is also a user-facing one that starts with #
https://docs.stripe.com/api/invoices/object#invoice_object-id
https://docs.stripe.com/api/invoices/object#invoice_object-number

#

You can use whichever to track and display things in your integration but the ID (in_1234) is definitely the important one to keep for API purposes at least.

#

Also definitely listen to the invoice.paid event if you are not already as that will notify you about these payments as they are being made

solemn charm Jul 22, 2024, 8:20 PM

#

Ah so I'm talking about getting the info from this call

#

      const subscription = await stripeClient.subscriptions.update(
        key.subscriptionId,
        {
          items: [
            {
              id: previousSubscription.items.data[0].id,
              price: STRIPE_AGENCY_PRICE_ID
            },
            // {
            //   id: '{{SUB_ITEM_ID}}',
            //   deleted: true,
            // },
          ],
          proration_behavior: 'always_invoice',
          payment_behavior: 'error_if_incomplete',
          automatic_tax: {
            enabled: true
          },
        }
      );

forest halo Jul 22, 2024, 8:21 PM

#

Gotcha. Yes, that will create a new invoice and you can get it's ID by checking the latest_invoice property on the subscription object that you get back

#

Though if you do want that number, you can expand latest_invoice when making that update and get the full invoice object https://docs.stripe.com/api/expanding_objects

#

Awesome, thanks.

#

I think that might be it then

forest halo Jul 22, 2024, 8:32 PM

Glad I could help, let us know if you run in to anything else!
