Billing

New and changed features

Feature	Description	Updated
Business Automation Dashboard	In Order Entry, the AI assistant can now: Handle discount information as follows: Analyze discount information in order forms Look up discount charges in the product catalog Reflect discount charges and net amount in the draft orders Extract payment terms from order forms. Previously, tenant's default payment terms was used Extract sold-to and bill-to contacts separately. Previously, sold-to contact was used for bill-to contact Extract the VAT number. Previously, no VAT number was extracted See AI Order Entry.
Invoicing and Tax	The Bill Run Advanced Filter is now generally available. Use this filter to bill your customers by selecting accounts, subscriptions, and charges based on custom filters. The advanced and custom filters allow you to create bill runs more granularly and flexibly. See Bill Run Advanced Filter.
Invoicing and Tax	You can now specify a reason code and comments for reversing invoices and credit memos.
Invoicing and Tax	You can now create, update, and delete items when editing draft standalone invoices, credit memos, and debit memos. See Add and delete invoice items of draft standalone invoices and Edit credit and debit memos.
Invoicing and Tax	You can now update the following fields through the “Update an invoice schedule” API operation, even though the `actualAmount` field has a negative value after retrieving an invoice schedule: You can update the `notes` and custom fields of the invoice schedule. You can update the `name` field of the schedule item when the schedule item is in `Pending` status. You can update the custom fields of the schedule item when the schedule item is in `Pending` or `Processed` status. See Update an invoice schedule.
Invoicing and Tax	We have enhanced the tax amount validation when the following settings are specified: Available to credit validation for credit memos billing setting is set to Header and Item-level. Tax Auto Calculation checkbox is selected. Even though the Header and Item-level billing setting is specified, the system now only validates the total tax amount instead of the tax amounts on individual tax items. Previously, the system validated both the total tax amount and tax amounts on individual tax items. See Enable preventing over-crediting.
Invoicing and Tax	We have added sold-to and bill-to contacts to debit memos. If you create an invoice with incorrect contacts, which results in wrong tax information, you can now create a debit memo from the invoice and correct the contacts on the debit memo through the REST API.
Invoicing and Tax	We have made the following two enhancements: If you do not specify a payment term when creating a customer account through the “Create an account” or “Sign up” API operation, the payment term is inherited from the default payment term in the Billing Settings > Payment Terms setting. Previously, the account payment term always used `Due Upon Receipt`, regardless of whether this payment term was activated or deactivated. If you specify a deactivated payment term when creating a customer account through the “Create an account” or “Sign up” API operation, the account creation fails, and you receive an error message. Previously, you could create a customer account with a deactivated payment term.
Invoicing and Tax	Six new default templates have been added to the Template Library screen of the Summary Statement (Billing > Manage Billing Document Configuration > Manage Invoice, Credit/Debit Memo Templates > Add New HTML Template). These templates offer pre-designed options for users to customize and configure summary statements. See Configure Summary statements in HTML templates.
Invoicing and Tax	The `PdfFileRequest` object has been added to the Data Sources for Invoice, Credit Memo, and Debit Memo. See Invoice data source, Credit memo data source, and Debit memo data source. A new object, billingdocumentpdfgeneration, has been supported via Data Query, which analyzes the PDF generation status related to billing documents. See Data query. This enhancement also provides users with API access to the status of PDF generation, enabling them to easily check if a request is pending, in progress, or failed. See PDF generation status of Invoices, PDF generation status of Credit Memo, and PDF generation status of Dredit Memo.
Invoicing and Tax	The Statement Management APIs have been enhanced to support Summary Statement and Summary Statement Run, which were previously accessible only through the UI. The enhanced Statement Run APIs enable creating ad-hoc statement runs for single or multiple accounts, retrieving statement run details, and listing statements within a run, with the ability to download individual statement PDFs. Also, the new Statement Template APIs allow users to create, retrieve, and update summary statement templates for accounts.
Invoicing and Tax	A new field, city, is now available in the Mapping Formula section of the Create Tax Code screen (Setting > Billing > Setup Taxation Codes > Add new tax code). This field allows you to select the city name from the soldToContact object and is applicable only when using Multiple Tax Engines. See Tax engine mapping formula.
Invoicing and Tax	Zuora Billing has introduced a new REST API integration for the Direct Avalara Integration, streamlining AvaTax for Sales tax calculations. This enhancement replaces the outdated SOAP API, making the integration more reliable and aligned with Avalara’s latest API standards. If you are an existing customer, no action is needed as this update will be applied automatically without requiring any manual intervention Currently, this feature is in Early Adopter (EA) status. See Direct Avalara integration.
Invoicing and Tax	You can now select both Legacy Custom Fields and Advanced Custom Fields when creating a Connect Tax Engine in the Setup Tax Engine screen (Settings > Billing > Setup Tax Engine and Tax Date). The following objects and their custom fields are now available in the tax app templates: Account Contact (Contact supports legacy custom fields only) CreditMemo DebitMemo Invoice InvoiceItem (Invoice Item supports legacy custom fields only) ProductRatePlanCharge RatePlanCharge Subscription Previously, users could only select Legacy Custom Fields. See Setup Connect tax engine.
Orders and Subscriptions	The Omni-Channel subscription feature is now available for early adopters. You can use API or Data Loader to import subscriptions from external systems, such as Apple App Store, Google Play Store, and Roku Store, and keep Zuora as the single source for your subscriptions from all channels. The imported subscriptions persist as the omnichannel subscriptions. You can perform the following operations on omnichannel subscriptions: Create, update, and delete omni-channel subscriptions through the REST API View and retrieve information on omnichannel subscriptions through the REST API, AQuA API, Data Query, Data Souce, subscription details page, and subscription list page To turn on this feature, submit a request to Zuora Global Support.
Orders and Subscriptions	We have added the following fields to the `termsAndConditions` field in the “Create an order” API operation: `scheduledCancelDate` `scheduledSuspendDate` `scheduledResumeDate` `clearingScheduledCancelDate` `clearingScheduledSuspendDate` `clearingScheduledResumeDate` You can now specify future dates for the `scheduledCancelDate`, `scheduledSuspendDate`, and `scheduledResumeDate` fields. When the dates arrive, the system automatically creates orders with corresponding order actions to cancel, suspend, and resume the subscription. Following the order, the system changes the subscription status and clears the specified scheduled dates. You can also use the `clearingScheduledCancelDate`, `clearingScheduledSuspendDate`, and `clearingScheduledResumeDate` fields to manually clear the specified scheduled dates. See Create an order.
Orders and Subscriptions	You can now enter an order date while reverting an order. Revert Order action is only available for the Single Version Subscription feature. See Revert orders.
Orders and Subscriptions	If the `originalListPrice`field is specified for the following charges through the “Create an order” or “Create an order asynchronously” API operations, you can now retrieve this field through the “List subscriptions by account key”, “Retrieve a subscription by key”, and “Retrieve a subscription by key and version” API operations. `oneTimeFlatFee` `oneTimePerUnit` `recurringFlatFee` `recurringPerUnit` `usageFlatFee` `usagePerUnit` See List subscriptions by account key, Retrieve a subscription by key, and Retrieve a subscription by key and version.
Orders and Subscriptions	A new API operation called "List subscription metrics" is now available to list the gross MRR, net MRR, gross TCV, and net TCV metrics for your subscriptions. Additionally, the following operations now support listing the net TCV metric for your subscription: List subscriptions by account key Retrieve a subscription by key Retrieve a subscription by key and version See API Reference.
Orders and Subscriptions	The Delivery-based Billing feature now supports Zuora Billing customers applying percentage discounts to delivery pricing charges. Previously, only Order to Revenue customers could apply percentage discounts to delivery pricing charges. To support this enhancement, the Reflect Discount in Apply To Charge Net Amount checkbox was moved from the Revenue Accounting section to the Charge Amount section on the product page in the Zuora Billing UI. See Delivery-based Billing standard use case.
Orders and Subscriptions	Order to Revenue customers can now use Change Plan order actions.
Order to Revenue	We have enhanced the CCV metric for Order to Revenue customers. This new CCV metric is calculated by summing the billed amount of a charge and the preview amount for the unbilled portion of the charge. It improves the accuracy of CCV and solves the discrepancy between booking and billing amounts. See CCV calculation in Order to Revenue.
Order to Revenue	The following new standard reports are available in Reporting: Booking Report Booking VS Billing Variance Report See Standard reports.
Order to Revenue	A new user permission called Manage OTR settings is available in the Zuora Billing Standard User role. You must enable this permission for any user role that needs to configure the Revenue settings in Zuora Billing. If not enabled, the Revenue settings will be read-only, meaning that if you try to change and save them, an error will be returned. See Billing roles.
Order to Revenue	We have added the following fields to the Order Line Items page in the Zuora Billing UI. You can now configure the related revenue settings when you create or update an order line item through the UI. Revenue Recognition Timing Revenue Amortization Method See Create sales order line items.
Order to Revenue	We have enhanced the Data Migration function for the Order to Revenue feature. When you perform data migration, the revenue recognition events transactions are now also generated, in addition to booking transactions and billing transactions.
Order to Revenue	We have added a new field called `validityPeriodNumber` on the Booking Transactions object. See Booking Transaction object fields and Data Query.
Order to Revenue	A script tool is now available for you to perform transaction object pre-checks before you configure, backfill, and migrate data for your Order to Revenue tenant.
Usage and Rating	Unbilled Usage feature to support the Pre-Rated Pricing and High Water Mark Pricing charge models is now available for early adopters. See Unbilled Usage.
Usage and Rating	The Prepaid with Drawdown feature now supports applying percentage discounts to prepayment charges or drawdown charges. See Create prepayment subscription.
Usage and Rating	We have added a new billing rule setting called Should the stacked percentage discount ignore or follow discount class with the following options: The default Ignore discount class option maintains the current behavior of ignoring the discount class order when applying stacked discounts. The Follow discount class option switches the behavior to applying the stacked discounts in the discount class order and applying the stacked discount to the remaining amount after the previous discount class is processed. See Define billing rule and Discount class and stacked discounts.

You can now configure the merchant name by using either of the following approaches: Specify the `merchantName` configuration parameter in your client-side code. Enable the Payment Link feature and configure the Public Business Information setting. See Set up Google Pay with Zuora JavaScript SDK.
Payments	The payment schedule items with a canceled status are now soft deleted, enabling you to retain them within the Zuora system for later use. The deleted payment schedule/payment schedule items will not be available through the Payment Schedules API. If you require access to soft deleted payment schedules and PSIs, you can utilize data sources to export this information.
Payments	Payment Profiles for subscribers are now available that allow you to associate payment methods and gateways with specific subscriptions. The Orders API now accepts additional parameters in the request body, allowing customers to populate subscription-level payment methods and payment gateways in large volume with API calls at subscription creation and thereafter.

Support for payment surcharges is currently in the early adopter phase and in limited availability. This capability is available for customers on Invoice settlement.
Payments	The Chase Paymentech Orbital Gateway integration has been enhanced to include the surcharge information in Level 2 and Level 3 card data. If the Surcharge feature is enabled, a Level 3 line item for the surcharge is added to the line item array in the request to the gateway. If the surcharge tax is applied, the tax amount in Level 2 data includes the surcharge tax. See Level 2 and Level 3 data mapping for Chase Orbital gateway.
Payments	Now, the `CreditMemoPart` and `CreditMemoPartItem` records are soft deleted when the amount in the record is 0, enabling you to retain them within the Zuora system for later use. Previously, the `CreditMemoPart` and `CreditMemoPartItem` records were hard deleted, and the users could not use the data for the sync-up process as they did not exist in the Zuora system.
