Defining Contract Schedules

You can automatically generate charges according to a fixed schedule by defining one or more contract schedules. Then, when defining a charge plan for an agreement line item, you can select the schedule you want. On a particular day, on a recurring schedule, an invoice is created from the consolidation of charges. For example, you can schedule charges for a product to be generated on the last day of each month or every Sunday.
