Can I create an invoice with multiple line items?

Problem Statement

Can I customize line items on an invoice? Can I create an invoice with multiple line items or add line items to an existing invoice?

Solution

In Chargebee, invoices are automatically generated from the plans and addons on a subscription. You cannot manually create an invoice with multiple line items or add line items to an existing invoice.

For a subscription with a plan and addons, each plan and addon appears as a separate line item. The same applies when you bulk upload subscriptions.

Note

Metered billing adds line items to invoices at the end of each term.

Steps to Set It Up (Workaround)

To show more detail, use Plan Description when editing the plan. Add a description of the costs; it will appear on the invoice.
