Proration on Credit Options

Overview

By default, Aria's proration system on credit and charges uses a rounded debit amount model when calculating proration. However, in some cases, undesired 1-cent differences in the prorated amount are created after mid-period changes. The Proration on credit options setting grants you the option to either use rounded or unrounded amounts in this proration processing.

Use Proration on credit options to prevent 1-cent increases in prorated amounts after mid-period plan changes using selected Aria APIs including (e.g. update_acct_plan_multi_m). The options for this client parameter govern whether or not the unrounded or rounded amount is used during prorated charge/credit calculations.

Rounding options on prorated credits or charges on a service can toggled to "rounded" or "unrounded" in the UI with the Proration on credit options setting.

To set in the UI, go to Configuration > Billing > Invoice Settings > Proration on credit options. Select the rounding option in the Value dropdown on the Proration on credit options page and click Save.

Note: Once you choose the proration processing rounding option that suits your system model, stick with it. Switching between options can complicate your accounting and billing, making them harder to reconcile later.
