Subscriptions Pricing Preview
This release makes it easier for you to locate and delete excess payments for a customer record and creating a new price point, the Pricing Preview now retains your input for preview and does not default to 1. This allows you to check how Tiered, Volume, or Stairstep pricing works for the same input.
Subscriptions Transfer to Live site
This release includes the following updates:
We fixed an issue with the transfer of configurations from a Test site to a Live site due to scalability.
When listing the total number of subscriptions in the Classic UI, the count values weren't rendering correctly. This has been set right.
Subscription Renewal issues
This release includes the following fixes:
While calendar billing and metered billing are used together, when the calendar billing JSON has a threshold period included, metered usages or any data added for the invoice were not considered/added for the threshold period. This is now fixed!
When the next billing date for a subscription with both metered and non-metered items is updated, upon closure of the pending invoice, the billing period of the metered items was found to be incorrect.
Invoice Fixes
We have released the following fixes
We now include line_item_taxes in invoices' export as it reduces manual efforts in data migration.
While backdating a subscription and its associated invoice is to be activated as of a part date, the date was found to not be captured as per selection. This is now fixed!
The usage notes added for usages can be displayed on the Usage PDF at each line item level, on-demand.
While configuring sales tax mapping for QuickBooks integration, the tax rates that were already configured under Taxes were not displayed.
Subscription Issues
We've fixed multiple issues in this release:
While cloning an existing plan with a trial period to create a gift plan, a gift subscription was found to be created with In-trial status. This has been rectified.
Some subscription items were not being returned via the Estimates APIs. We've fixed that.
The application of multiple promotional credits or advance payments on the invoice was found to have discrepancies, while applied all at once.
Test site users for accounts created in the EU and Australia hosting regions were seeing some errors when using the Manual Discounts feature. This is fixed.
Order Issues
This release resolves the following issues associated with Shopify and ShipStation orders:
Split orders when resynced led to quantity and other line-item is getting overridden in ShipStation.
We will no longer use the "Quantity* Total" instead of the "Quantity* Unit price parameter.
The customers' first and last names were being updated in Shopify based on the billing API.
Map additional fields for the company and deals
The Chargebee HubSpot Quote-to-Cash integration allows users to map up to five additional fields for syncing company and deal records in HubSpot to customer and subscription records, respectively in Chargebee. However, any updates to HubSpot additional fields were not passed on to Chargebee. As part of this release:
When the integration syncs company records, any update to company additional field values in HubSpot replaces the customer field values in Chargebee.
When the integration syncs deal records, any update to deal additional field values in HubSpot replaces the subscription field values in Chargebee.
Blank values in HubSpot additional fields do not overwrite values in Chargebee.
