Distributing Items to Multiple Invoices

Generally, the invoice run creates one invoice per subscription. Certain use cases, however, require usage data or items to be invoiced separately. To support this, JustOn makes use of invoice criteria, which are a means for controlling the distribution of invoice line items to multiple invoices. Only invoice line items with the same criterion are included in one invoice, others are invoiced separately.

To enable the invoice criterion, add the field ON_InvoiceCriterion to the relevant object.

• If you manually create subscriptions and items, add ON_InvoiceCriterion to the Item object.
• When automatically building subscriptions, add ON_InvoiceCriterion to the custom object that makes up the source for the item.
• In case of usage data billing, that is, when processing transactional items, add ON_InvoiceCriterion to the custom usage data object.

Once set up, you can explicitly disable the invoice criterion feature for a subscription by selecting the checkbox Ignore Invoice Criterion.

Adding Invoice Criterion

To add the invoice criterion field:

1. Navigate to the fields list of the relevant object.

2. Create the following new field.

   Field Label	API Name	Data Type
   Invoice Criterion	ON_InvoiceCriterion	Text (255) Formula (Text)

   For help about creating fields, see Managing Object Fields.

Using this field allows for grouping invoice line items. The scope of the criterion is limited to draft invoices, the current invoice run, and the service period of the current invoice run.
