Non-cc payments and invoices
Is it possible to create a invoice or perhaps even recurring subscription, but not charge CC on file? This would help us track all subscription payments, even if user chooses to pay by check, in one place - specifically CG, as well as make sure account gets suspended correctly for nonpayment (when we don't mark bill as paid in CG for specific customer).
Is this scenario supported?

Hi Slav -- We're working on a way to use the Subscription Billable hook to trigger an AP event. That hook would need to be received by a listener outside CG for further processing. For example, you could record an payable invoice in your accounting software automatically or via a manual process.
We're working on a way to use existing pricing plans to do this. However, it's possible that you could do this today via a free pricing plan. This works well for typical subscription models. I couldn't get a good understanding of your billing model from your current pricing plan config so I'm not sure how to advise you without further information. Can you explain your model in some detail?

Well, basically I have paid subscription, I might or not have CC on record.
I would like to do two things:
Does this answer your question?

You can do this simply by adding a custom credit to the invoice in the amount of the check payment.
To do this you need to use a free copy of the pricing plan with the same settings except no flat recurring charge and no item overage charges. Anyone who pays offline should be subscribed to that plan. Then, you need to manage the accounts payable event externally. In CheddarGetter, the subscription will be forever active unless it's manually canceled.

Marc, thank you! The only thing is, if I create a free plan there's no easy way for me to see my monthly income from that free plan. I guess I could use plan description for that... Still, wouldn't be as convenient.
