Creating Billing Jobs

You can create a billing job to run at a particular interval. When the billing job runs, it creates billing documents from the billing schedules that have not been billed where the Billing Date is on or before the date of the billing run. If the Calculate Tax on Billing custom setting is enabled, then tax will be calculated on the billing documents using FinancialForce. For more details see the tax calculation topics in FinancialForce ERP Help.

You can create billing jobs when setting up Billing Central. You do not have to wait until billing schedules are created.

To create a billing job:

  1. Click the Billing Job tab.
  2. Select the frequency on which the scheduler is to run. The options are:
  3. Enter the start date for the billing job.
  4. Enter the end date of the billing job or the number of occurrences after which the scheduler stops running.
  5. Enter the Preferred Start Time. The exact start time of the job depends on queue activity.
  6. Click Schedule Job.

Depending on your permissions, you can monitor progress of the job by going to Setup | Monitoring | Scheduled Jobs. For more information, see the Salesforce Help.

Note:

The scheduled billing job does not bill expired contracts. If you need to create billing documents for contracts that have expired, you can do it manually from the list view on the Contracts tab.
