When to use Add Expense

The Add Expense Action is used to add a one-off  irregular charge to the Subscription.

Expenses can also be automatically added to a Subscription through the execution or scheduling of another Subscription Action, provided pre-defined conditions are met. For more information, refer to the POLICIES Section in Billing Term Subscription Definitions. The Cancel Expense Action can be used to remove an added Expense.

View the Information Table below for information related to the Scheduling, Preview Rating and Classification of the Subscription Action.  Check the Validations & Restrictions Table for a list of available Actions, including each Action's related validations, restrictions and additional information.

View 'Using Subscription Action Modal' available in Managing Subscriptions for more information on executing the Action.
