👋 happy to help
yes unfortunately there's nothing else you can do other than changing the billing_cycle_anchor
graceful laurel
var newAnchor = new DateTimeOffset(DateTime.UtcNow.Date.AddDays(-2).AddHours(3)).ToUnixTimeSeconds();
var options = new SubscriptionUpdateOptions
{
BillingCycleAnchor = newAnchor,
ProrationBehavior = "create_prorations",
};
var updatedSubscription = subscriptionService.Update("sub_123", options);
Would that be along the right line?
lone meadow
you would need to pass ProrationBehavior = "none"
you don't want to charge your customer for a few hours it would sound off
graceful laurel
yes sorry just saw that, but that would update it to be 3 hours later?
lone meadow
oh sorry didn't see that var newAnchor = new DateTimeOffset(DateTime.UtcNow.Date.AddDays(-2).AddHours(3)).ToUnixTimeSeconds();
graceful laurel
I don't have to cancel the original subscription?

graceful laurel
ok so create an exact timestamp should work, that'seven better so I can say 3 am on the 1st of the month?
lone meadow
yes but that would mean that you would have to use Subscription Schedules
graceful laurel
we do use schedules
lone meadow
since the update subscription doesn't allow other than now and unchanged for the billing_cycle_anchor
graceful laurel
Is it the schedule I need to update instead?
lone meadow
you would set the phase to end at the time of your choice (basically 3 hours after the end_period of the current billing cycle) and then in the next phase you would do it for 1 iteration and pass proration_behavior none and set the schedule to release after that
