Mass Stubbing Process
The Mass Stubbing Process stubs the Billing Detail lines for imported schedule lines. This functionality is used for periods that have already been billed to prevent another invoice from being created.
If the Billing Schedule Line is set as deferred, a Deferral Schedule Line for the stubbed periods can be created automatically if the "Create deferral schedule" option is selected. If the line has a discount amount, a separate Schedule will also be created for discounts.
Example
-
A Billing Schedule Header is imported.
-
A Billing Schedule Line is imported.
-
Amount = $12,000
-
Start = 2025-01-01
-
End = 2025-12-31
-
Billing Frequency = Annually
-
-
The Mass Stubbing Process is run to prevent another invoice from being created.
-
Alternatively, the stubbing cutoff date can be provided when the billing schedule line is imported.
-
-
A deferral schedule is automatically created. Assuming monthly fiscal periods, there would be 12 lines with $1,000 each.
-
Recognition Processing is used to stub deferral lines for periods that have already been recognized.
-
The schedule line is terminated with a credit on 2025-05-31 for the amount of $7,000.
-
The deferral schedule is automatically adjusted by -$7,000. The new amount for the schedule is $5,000.
Unstubbing
Lines that have a Deferral Schedule created cannot be unstubbed.
Terminations With Credit
When Billing Schedule Lines are terminated with a credit, all Deferral Schedules created from the Stubbing process will be adjusted automatically.
The Sales order of the credit will show both the Credit sales price and Credit discount. The voucher will use the same accounts as the original invoice.
This process applies to both Issue Credit and Credit Adjustment methods. The credit can be created immediately if ‘Issue Credit’ is selected, or a negative billing detail line will be created for the ‘Credit Adjustment’ option.
