Recurring fee Charges for Resources

Life cycle of the Recurring fee Charges for Resources is similar to the life cycle of the Recurring fee Charges for a Subscription except the case of reducing an amount of Subscription Resources (see Splitting of Charges when an amount of Subscription Resources is reduced). In that case, the Charges that serve to refund money are generated. They may have two statuses: Waiting for refund — the default one, in which they are generated, and Refunded — the one that Charges receive after the money for the unused period are returned to the Account Balance.

Changing of the Charges attributes when an Order was paid after the date of its creation

An Order can be paid after the date of its creation up until the end of the Due order period.

If an Order, that has Provisioning date = the Order creating date (see Viewing Order Details), is paid after the date of its creation, Charges attributes are changing at the moment of payment completion:

For the Recurring fee Charges: An Order can be paid after the date of its creation until the nearest Billing day or the end of Due order period. In the majority of cases (excluding Pay as you go and Charges for the Pay in full billing type billing types), such attributes as statuses and periods are changed for all Charges, and additionally, the amounts of recurring fee Charges for a fraction of Billing period are changed.
Setup fee, Renewal fee, Transfer fee Charges change only such attributes as statuses and periods.
