Chargebee Release Notes

We have introduced a Type column in the History > Invoice section of the Customer Details and Subscription Details pages to improve visibility. This column now clearly labels invoices as Recurring or One-time, allowing you to differentiate them without opening each invoice.

The invoice template builder previously displayed a carousel option in the editor, even though carousels are not supported in invoices. This has now been fixed, and the carousel option has been removed, ensuring that the template builder accurately reflects the available invoice customization options.

When using day-based billing mode, reducing the billing period for unbilled charges caused an incorrect billing period to appear on invoices in some cases. This issue has now been fixed, ensuring that prorated charges reflect the correct billing period and preventing discrepancies in invoices.

Previously, subscription trial end actions didn't follow site settings when a scheduled change was in place. This bug has been fixed ensuring greater accuracy and alignment with your preferences when managing trials.

Previously, when editing a subscription with an advance invoice, dropdown custom fields were not displaying correctly on the UI. This has been fixed, ensuring that all custom fields now appear as expected while making subscription changes.

While changing the frequency or variant of an addon, when creating or updating a subscription, the updated price was not reflected in the Amount field. This led to incorrect invoicing. We've fixed this issue, ensuring that the addon price updates correctly in real-time, so your invoices always reflect the right amount.

Previously, the credit note preview displayed while updating a subscription showed the unused period start date incorrectly, showing the current date instead of the prorated start date. This UI issue has now been fixed, ensuring that credit calculations reflect the right period for accurate invoicing.

Previously, invoice templates did not translate date formats based on the selected language, leading to inconsistencies in localized invoices. This has now been fixed—dates in invoices will now be displayed in the correct language, ensuring consistency with your customer's preferred locale.

While scheduling a subscription change, the See Breakdown pop-up incorrectly displayed Refundable Credits instead of prorated Adjustment Credits. We've fixed this issue, ensuring that scheduled changes now display the correct credit type, giving you an accurate view of adjustments.

Previously, some upcoming payments displayed past dates instead of the correct future billing date. This happened because advance invoices weren't generated under specific conditions. This has now been fixed for all new subscriptions, ensuring that upcoming payment dates reflect accurate billing information.

When creating subscriptions for items in bulk, the processed records were not hyperlinked for review, making it difficult to verify the uploaded data. We've fixed this issue, so you can now easily access and review processed records directly from the bulk operations page.

Previously, some subscription custom fields were not appearing in invoices when account hierarchies were involved, particularly for one-time invoices billed to a parent customer. This issue has now been fixed, ensuring that all relevant custom fields and subscription-specific fields are correctly displayed in invoices.

We've fixed an issue where the order of applying manual discounts and coupons was inconsistent, leading to incorrect Monthly Recurring Revenue(MRR) calculations. Now, discounts are applied in the expected sequence—manual line item discounts first, followed by coupons—ensuring that MRR values align correctly with invoice amounts.

You can now update a subscription by adding a contract term that starts at the end of the current term, even when the contract end action is set to evergreen. With this fix, you can apply contract terms starting from the next renewal while ensuring the subscription continues indefinitely after the contract period.

Previously, invoice QR codes did not display the City Name and Zip Code in the address details, making it harder for Switzerland customers to reference complete billing information. Now, you can ensure both the city and zip code appear next to the QR code on all invoices using a site setting.

Previously, the recurring Subscription Estimate API failed when estimating canceled subscriptions that did not include addons, potentially disrupting billing calculations. This issue has now been fixed, ensuring accurate estimates for all canceled subscriptions - with or without addons.

Previously, some users encountered issues accessing quotes due to inconsistencies in how charges were handled. These charges were incorrectly treated as addons because there was no validation in Create a quote for subscription update API, leading to validation errors and API failures. We've fixed this issue by ensuring proper validation and data consistency, so your quotes now process correctly without errors.

Previously, payment schedules remained marked as Not Paid even after the full amount was settled, causing confusion in tracking payment statuses. This issue is now fixed—once all scheduled payments are completed, the status will correctly update to Paid.

Previously, advance invoice processing for GoCardless payments could fail causing errors like 'Malformed response received from server'. We've now optimized the process to distribute advance invoice requests more efficiently, preventing rate limit issues and ensuring uninterrupted billing.

We've fixed an issue where custom fields weren't appearing for many subscriptions during bulk export . This discrepancy occurred due to differences in how custom fields were handled after product catalog migration. Now, custom fields are included improving scalability and keeping file exports optimized.
