Recurring invoiced generated for the previous day also when Subscription is UNBLOCKED

Hi everyone ,

Recurring invoiced generated for the previous day also when Subscription is UNBLOCKED

Usecase for DAILY plan:

Set the date to May 1 and the Time-12:30 AM

• Now subscribe the plan on May 1-12:30 AM where billing period is May 1-12:30 AM to May 2 -12:30 AM
• Where Next invoice will be generated on  May 2 -12:30 AM for the billing period May 2 to May 3
• Before that Using the /subscription/{subscripionid}/block API, I BLOCKED the subscription with the requestedDate=May 2 and request body as
  
  {

      "stateName": "BLOCKED_BILLING_STATE",

      "service": "BlockState",

      "isBlockChange": false,

      "isBlockEntitlement": true,

      "isBlockBilling": true,

      "type": "SUBSCRIPTION"

  }
• So the subscription billing will be stopped at the EOT i.e May 2-12:30 AM
• Now API is called and the susbcription is now in BLOCKED state
• Set the date to May 3 -12:25 AM,  and now unblock the susbcription with the  /subscription/{subscripionid}/block   API and without requestedDate with the request body
  
  {
      "stateName": "UNBLOCKED_BILLING_STATE",
      "service": "BlockState",
      "isBlockChange": false,
      "isBlockEntitlement": false,
      "isBlockBilling": false,
      "type": "SUBSCRIPTION"
  }
• Now what happened is Invoice for the Period May 2 to May 3 and for the period May 3 to May 4
• For just five miniutes i charged the whole amount
• is there any way to handle it to avoid the previous day here

Hi there,

This might be happening because Kill Bill does not invoice for granularities smaller than a day. Is there a reason to use 12:25 AM as the unblocking time? Even if you unblock the subscription on 3rd like 1 AM, 2 AM etc. it will still be billed.
