Hi 👋

I'm taking a look at the objects you provided IDs for.

#

Can you tell me what the current frozen time is for this billing clock?
NVM I found it

#

Billing clocks can sometimes be finicky, specifically when it comes to ivnoices transitioning from draft to open status.

#

As I'm sure you've noticed, the 1 hour period between when an Invoice is created (as part of a subscription cycle) and when it finalizes doesn't respect the Test Clock.

So you either need to wait the full hour in real time or call /finalize which is what you did. Because of this quirk, you will need to advance the billing clock again after the call finalize for it to trigger the automatic payment.

#

I just simulated this in my own test scripts and confirmed this behavior.

advance it after /finalize, by an hour? checkin' it out...

I advanced my clock by another 31 days but I don't think the increment matters. I think it's that the clock advancing re-triggers those automated actions like automatic payment
