I want to know how usage-based billing works in Business Central. There is a usage-based billing check on the subscription package as well (can anyone explain how this works completely?). And how does the usage data import work? I am looking into it but can't understand what will be imported, which file will be imported, and what its format will be, etc. Need complete guidance.
Secondly, I created a non-inventory item. Then I created a subscription package with the partner type 'Customer' and assigned this item to it. When I created a sales order and did the ship & invoice, the subscription line was created. I then created a customer subscription contract, fetched the lines using 'Get Subscription Lines', and ran the further invoicing process. Good on this.
But when I created a new item and a subscription package for the partner type 'Vendor' and created a purchase order, the subscription lines were not created upon posting the receipt and invoice on this purchase side. Is the process different for the purchase side? Please guide me through the complete process.
