(VIN-5507)Current Liability and IBRR reports improved
The Current Liability and the Invoice Based Revenue Recognition reports have been improved to reflect liabilities and correct amounts when a product or billing plan is changed in the middle of the billing period. A new column (Credit Forwarded) has been added to the Current Liability report to display the amount of the current service period. This is used to offset the charge for the new service period in case of mid cycle modification. This is either the full next charge in case the customer is getting a refund, or the non-used part of the current service period in the case of an additional charge required. Calculations for the following columns have changed to include credit forwarded:- Payments Received
- Total Credits
- Refund Tax Amount (renamed to Sales Tax Credited)
- Credit forwarded (as calculated in the Liability report)
- Refund date
- Total tax
- Sales tax credited
- Pre-tax total
