[freeside] Freeside 1.4.0 pre 5 - billing output

[Timothy M. Butkiewicz]

Sorry for the confusion. Forget the setup fee.

What happened was the customer was entered ( in 1.3.1).
Then they added several packages.
Then freeside-bill  kicked it (It runs nightly as a cron)
The customer received a bill, but a date was not placed in cust_pkg.setup,
it was just left null.

So then we brought up 1.4pre5
So when I ran freeside-bill and received:
> > Error billing,  customer #110:Error reval-ing part_pkg->setup pkgpart
50:

It was because the customer was active, had been billed in the past, but for
whatever reason the setup date was never added to the field cust_pkg.setup
(which to my understanding should have happened automagically.)

All in all I fixed it.

Not for the setup fee they weren't.  If you're going to ask for help,
please don't refuse to answer questions about your installation.
That doesn't help anyone.

Would you do:
  
  SELECT setup FROM part_pkg WHERE pkgpart = 50

and send the exact results, please?
