Billing Automation

Master automated billing systems including recurring billing, invoice generation, dunning management, proration, and tax calculation.

Use this skill when

  • Implementing SaaS subscription billing
  • Automating invoice generation and delivery
  • Managing failed payment recovery (dunning)
  • Calculating prorated charges for plan changes
  • Handling sales tax, VAT, and GST
  • Processing usage-based billing
  • Managing billing cycles and renewals

Do not use this skill when

  • You only need a one-off invoice or manual billing
  • The task is unrelated to billing or subscriptions
  • You cannot change pricing, plans, or billing flows

Instructions

  • Define plans, pricing, billing intervals, and proration rules.
  • Map subscription lifecycle states and renewal/cancellation behavior.
  • Implement invoicing, payments, retries, and dunning workflows.
  • Model taxes and compliance requirements per region.
  • Validate with sandbox payments and reconcile ledger outputs.
  • If detailed templates are required, open resources/implementation-playbook.md.

Safety

  • Do not charge real customers in testing environments.
  • Verify tax handling and compliance obligations before production rollout.

Resources

  • resources/implementation-playbook.md for detailed patterns, checklists, and examples.

Limitations

  • Use this skill only when the task clearly matches the scope described above.
  • Do not treat the output as a substitute for environment-specific validation, testing, or expert review.
  • Stop and ask for clarification if required inputs, permissions, safety boundaries, or success criteria are missing.
FAQ

What is 'dunning management'?

It's the process of managing and recovering payments that couldn't be processed on the first attempt, like expired credit cards.

What does 'proration' mean?

It's the proportional calculation of a charge. For example, if a customer changes their plan mid-month, the amount charged will be proportional to the time spent on each plan.

Can I use this for one-off charges?

No, this tool is focused on automation for recurring billing and complex invoicing systems, not for single manual invoices.
