Invoice Plan for Service Contract is not generating as expected

In service contracts, when you attempt to create an invoice for a later period, the system follows a structured invoicing sequence. This means that any pending or unbilled periods before the selected date will automatically generate corresponding invoices. Essentially, the system ensures that all previous periods are accounted for before moving forward.

Because of this design, there is no direct option to skip over a past period and generate an invoice only for a future date. If a previous period has not been invoiced yet, the system will automatically generate an invoice for that period as well.

However, if you need to create an invoice for a later period while excluding an earlier one, a workaround is available. You can utilize the ‘Create Credit Invoice’ option. This feature enables you to counteract or adjust any additional invoice lines that were generated for the earlier period. By doing so, the system effectively remove the unintended invoice amount while keeping the later period invoice intact.

This approach ensures that the invoicing sequence remains consistent while allowing adjustments to be made when necessary.
