Turn a recurring bill off or on

Start or stop a recurring bill schedule as needed. For example, if a contract is put on hold, turn off a schedule to temporarily stop Sage Intacct from creating bills. When you’re ready to restart the recurring schedule, turn the schedule back on.

Alternatively, turn a bill schedule off directly from the Recurring bills list, which sets the status to Inactive.

To stop a recurring bill from running that you do not intend to restart it in the future, consider deleting the bill template instead.

1. Go to Accounts Payable > All > Bills > Recurring bills.

2. Find the recurring bill.
3. Select Edit at the end of the row.
4. To stop a recurring bill from running without deleting it, select Inactive from the Status dropdown.
5. To restart a recurring bill that was previously turned off, do one of the following:
   1. Select Active from the Status dropdown.
   1. On the Schedule tab, set the Next execution date to the date you want to create next bill.

      This prevents an inadvertent extra recurrence of the transaction.

      For example, a bill is created on May 12. On May 13, you decide to change it to run on May 16. Set the next execution date to June 16 to avoid double payments in May.

6. Select Save.

1. Go to Accounts Payable > All > Bills > Recurring bills.

2. Select Edit next to the appropriate bill.
3. To stop a recurring bill from running without deleting it, select Inactive from the Status dropdown.
4. To restart a recurring bill that was previously turned off, do one of the following:

      For example, a bill is created on May 12. On May 13, you decide to change it to run on May 16. Set the next execution date to June 16 to avoid double payments in May.
