Release 16

API Fixes

• When you cancel a plan then call the get_acct_plans_all_m API, any applicable cancellation fee is now returned in the early_cancel_fee field. (TICKET-10723)
• When calling update_payment_method_m, the payment method name, client-defined id, and description are now updated as expected. (TICKET-15758)
• XML Exception error: Unexpected element: CDATA was being displayed in authorize_electronic_payment_m API response instead of in the correct XML format (TICKET-16091)
• For REST calls: The currency_cd field for create_inventory_item_m is no longer case sensitive (e.g., both "usd" and "USD" are valid inputs for currency_cd); and, the error message returned when sending an invalid currency code is now accurate. (TICKET-16101)
• An invoice for recurring fees is no longer generated when using update_acct_plan_multi_m to assign an account a new plan instance having a retroactive_start_date, and invoicing_option = "4" (no invoice). (TICKET-16167)
• A new field, new_client_payment_method_id, has been added to update_payment_method_m. (TICKET-16284)
• Future plan assignment:

1. An error no longer occurs when you call the assign_acct_plan_m or update_acct_plan_multi_m API and you:

• Pass in a future effective_date;
• Pass in an override_bill_thru_date that is more than one billing cycle away from the API run date; and
• The period between the effective_date and the override_bill_thru_date is within one billing cycle.

  Example: If a plan's billing cycle is 1 year and you call the assign_acct_plan_m API on 3/1/2019, pass in an effective_date of 4/1/2019 and an override_bill_thru_date of  3/29/2020, an error will not occur. This is because 3/29/2020 is within 1 year of 4/1/2019.

2. Aria now returns the following new/updated error codes when you call the assign_acct_plan_m or update_acct_plan_multi_m API:

   New or Updated?	Error Code	Error Message
   Updated (effective_date added to the error message)	25032	The override_bill_thru_date must be in the future, must be after the alt_start_date, retroactive_start_date, or effective_date (if provided), and cannot exceed one recurring billing interval in the future.
   New	25040	Effective date is required when an assignment directive is in the future and override bill thru date is used.
