Date Preference

ProRata will try to determine the start date of the subscription using various fields from Xero.

  • Manual - You will need to manually enter the start and end dates in ProRata.

  • Invoice date - Always use the invoice date

  • Due date - Always use the due date

  • First of next month - It will always use the first of the month following the invoice date.

  • Parse description - ProRata will look at each line item for dates in the format of xx/xx/xxxx. The first date found will be the start date and the second will be the end date.

If set, ProRata will "Skip" any transaction with a date on or prior to the selected date.
