Sorry, typos above. Not MMR but MRR

What do you mean by a standalone invoice that's connect to an exisiing subscription?

#

So I mean if I've got to charge a customer for an extra payment or something. Basically, anything that didn'

#

didn't get automtically generated by the subscrition schedule itself

#

So I've got a sub that's trialing till Dec 3rd. I want to charge them for a "standalone" invoice on Nov 15th and have it be connected to that subscription.

#

This is basically what I mean.

I think I understand what you're asking - one-off additions to a subscription invoice (like you add an extra line item) should have no affect on MRR. MRR is specifically focused on the recurring price, and would only be affected if the change was to the recurring price itself

ok yeah because the explanation example from the support site on how MRR is calculated said that if the sub was an annual of $1200 the MRR would be $100 (taking $1200 / 12). But how is the MRR calculation getting the $1200 amount and the / 12 part is what I was wanting to confirm.

So it's not as simple as just checking unit_amount and the interval since you can also have tiered prices which work very differently, but at a high level we'd look at how much a subscription is charging over it's billing cycle, and convert that to how much it would charge for the year

Ok, yeah, that high level is fine for what I'm trying to get at. Ok, so main reason for asking this is that I wanted to know if I start a sub late as in I should have started it on Oct 3 and end it Jul 3rd, but I don't actually start it until Dec 3rd and then I go and back charge the customer for Oct 3rd to Nov 3rd on Nov 8th with a standalone invoice and then again on Nov 29th for Nov 3rd to Dec 3rd does that in any way affect the MRR calculation of the sub for the remainder of the sub?
