This Billing Calculator helps put actual test dates to the settings found in the Sonar V2 billing parameters. It will calculate based on the initial date entered (Bill Date). Use it like this:
- Left column: The Sonar V2 field name
- Middle column: The value to input
- Right column: Further explanation
For a “tutorial” on how Billing Defaults work, use the Billing Defaults page along with this worksheet. In addition to helping understand Billing Defaults, these values can also be seen and set in individual Accounts as “Billing Parameters.”
This tool is designed to be used to calculate Fixed Day Billing or Account Billing Settings. It's not designed to be used for calculating billing before an account's activation when Fixed Day Billing is not in use.
