NAME

FS::cust_bill - Object methods for cust_bill records

SYNOPSIS

 use FS::cust_bill;

 $record = new FS::cust_bill \%hash;
 $record = new FS::cust_bill { 'column' => 'value' };

 $error = $record->insert;

 $error = $new_record->replace($old_record);

 $error = $record->delete;

 $error = $record->check;

 ( $total_previous_balance, @previous_cust_bill ) = $record->previous;

 @cust_bill_pkg_objects = $cust_bill->cust_bill_pkg;

 ( $total_previous_credits, @previous_cust_credit ) = $record->cust_credit;

 @cust_pay_objects = $cust_bill->cust_pay;

 $tax_amount = $record->tax;

 @lines = $cust_bill->print_text;
 @lines = $cust_bill->print_text('time' => $time);

DESCRIPTION

An FS::cust_bill object represents an invoice; a declaration that a customer owes you money. The specific charges are itemized as cust_bill_pkg records (see FS::cust_bill_pkg). FS::cust_bill inherits from FS::Record. The following fields are currently supported:

Regular fields

invnum - primary key (assigned automatically for new invoices); custnum - customer (see FS::cust_main); _date - specified as a UNIX timestamp; see "time" in perlfunc. Also see Time::Local and Date::Parse for conversion functions.; charged - amount of this invoice; invoice_terms - optional terms override for this specific invoice

Deprecated fields

billing_balance - the customer's balance immediately before generating this invoice. DEPRECATED. Use the "balance date" in FS::cust main|FS::cust_main#balance_date|"balance_date" in FS::cust_main method to determine the customer's balance at a specific time.; previous_balance - the customer's balance immediately after generating the invoice before this one. DEPRECATED.; printed - formerly used to track the number of times an invoice had been printed; no longer used.

Specific use cases

closed - books closed flag, empty or `Y'; statementnum - invoice aggregation (see FS::cust_statement); agent_invid - legacy invoice number; promised_date - customer promised payment date, for collection

METHODS

new HASHREF
Creates a new invoice. To add the invoice to the database, see "insert". Invoices are normally created by calling the bill method of a customer object (see FS::cust_main).
insert
Adds this invoice to the database ("Posts" the invoice). If there is an error, returns the error, otherwise returns false.
void
Voids this invoice: deletes the invoice and adds a record of the voided invoice to the FS::cust_bill_void table (and related tables starting from FS::cust_bill_pkg_void).
delete
This method now works but you probably shouldn't use it. Instead, apply a credit against the invoice, or use the new void method.
Using this method to delete invoices outright is really, really bad. There would be no record you ever posted this invoice, and there are no check to make sure charged = 0 or that there are no associated cust_bill_pkg records.
Really, don't use it.
replace [ OLD_RECORD ]
You can, but probably shouldn't modify invoices...
Replaces the OLD_RECORD with this one in the database, or, if OLD_RECORD is not supplied, replaces this record. If there is an error, returns the error, otherwise returns false.
add_cc_surcharge
Giant hack
check
Checks all fields to make sure this is a valid invoice. If there is an error, returns the error, otherwise returns false. Called by the insert and replace methods.
display_invnum
Returns the displayed invoice number for this invoice: agent_invid if cust_bill-default_agent_invid is set and it has a value, invnum otherwise.
previous_bill
Returns the customer's last invoice before this one.
previous
Returns a list consisting of the total previous balance for this customer, followed by the previous outstanding invoices (as FS::cust_bill objects also).
enable_previous
Whether to show the 'Previous Charges' section when printing this invoice. The negation of the 'disable_previous_balance' config setting.
cust_bill_pkg
Returns the line items (see FS::cust_bill_pkg) for this invoice.
cust_bill_pkg_pkgnum PKGNUM
Returns the line items (see FS::cust_bill_pkg) for this invoice and specified pkgnum.
cust_pkg
Returns the packages (see FS::cust_pkg) corresponding to the line items for this invoice.
no_auto
Returns true if any of the packages (or their definitions) corresponding to the line items for this invoice have the no_auto flag set.
open_cust_bill_pkg
Returns the open line items for this invoice.
Note that cust_bill_pkg with both setup and recur fees are returned as two separate line items, each with only one fee.
cust_bill_event
Returns the completed invoice events (deprecated, old-style events - see FS::cust_bill_event) for this invoice.
num_cust_bill_event
Returns the number of completed invoice events (deprecated, old-style events - see FS::cust_bill_event) for this invoice.
cust_event
Returns the new-style customer billing events (see FS::cust_event) for this invoice.
num_cust_event
Returns the number of new-style customer billing events (see FS::cust_event) for this invoice.
cust_main
Returns the customer (see FS::cust_main) for this invoice.
cust_suspend_if_balance_over AMOUNT
Suspends the customer associated with this invoice if the total amount owed on this invoice and all older invoices is greater than the specified amount.
Returns a list: an empty list on success or a list of errors.
cust_credit
Depreciated. See the cust_credited method.

#Returns a list consisting of the total previous credited (see
#L<FS::cust_credit>) and unapplied for this customer, followed by the previous
#outstanding credits (FS::cust_credit objects).

cust_pay

cust_bill_pay

Returns all payment applications (see FS::cust_bill_pay) for this invoice applied against the matching pkgnum.
cust_credit_bill_pkg PKGNUM
Returns all credit applications (see FS::cust_credit_bill) for this invoice applied against the matching pkgnum.
cust_bill_batch
Returns all invoice batch records (FS::cust_bill_batch) for this invoice.
discount_plans
Returns all discount plans (FS::discount_plan) for this invoice, as a hash keyed by term length.
tax
Returns the tax amount (see FS::cust_bill_pkg) for this invoice.
owed

If format is 'oneline', there is no detail file. Each invoice has a header line only, with the fields:
Agent number, agent name, customer number, first name, last name, address line 1, address line 2, city, state, zip, invoice date, invoice number, amount charged, amount due, previous balance, due date.
and then, for each line item, three columns containing the package number, description, and amount.
If format is 'bridgestone', there is no detail file. Each invoice has a header line with the following fields in a fixed-width format:
Customer number (in display format), date, name (first last), company, address 1, address 2, city, state, zip.
This is a mailing list format, and has no per-invoice fields. To avoid sending redundant notices, the spooling event should have a "once" or "once_percust_every" condition.
comp
Pays this invoice with a compliemntary payment. If there is an error, returns the error, otherwise returns false.
realtime_card
Attempts to pay this invoice with a credit card payment via a Business::OnlinePayment realtime gateway. See http://search.cpan.org/search?mode=module&query=Business%3A%3AOnlinePayment for supported processors.
