To understand Aria's billing structure, it is important to know how a statement and an invoice are defined in Aria and how to determine which Master Plan Instances will be invoiced together.
Determining Which Master Plan Instances Invoice Together
Overview
In Aria, a statement is defined as all financial activity related to a single billing group and the corresponding Master Plan Instance(s), given those Master Plan Instances have the same billing anniversary (i.e. all the Plans that are due on a billing date).
Invoice
In Aria, an invoice is a roll-up of all invoice line items related to a single billing group and the corresponding Master Plan Instance(s), given those Master Plan Instances have the same billing anniversary (i.e. all the Plans that are due on a billing date).
Which Master Plan Instances Will Be Invoiced Together
Multiple Master Plan Instances can be assigned to a single billing group. Whether these Master Plan Instances have the same or different billing dates impacts how they are invoiced.
Master Plan Instances with Same Billing Date
If the billing date is the same for each Master Plan Instance (as shown below), an invoice for both Master Plan Instances displays on a single statement.
Master Plan Instance with Different Billing Dates
If the billing date is different on each Master Plan Instance assigned to a billing group (as shown below), then a separate invoice is generated for each Master Plan Instance, and that invoice displays on its own statement.
