Goal

Qn1:

Steps to reproduce the issue:
Create an account with any multi month cycle forward plan.
Advance PVT one month and before calling pin_bill_accts, execute the PCM_OP_BILL_MAKE_BILL_NOW.
A bill with $0 total and due is being generated.

In P16:
The bill's START_T is set to whatever ACTG_LAST_T is set to in the billinfo object.

In PS14:
The bill's START_T is set to the date the bill_now opcode was executed.

Please clarify if this is now the expected behavior with PS16?
 
Qn2: 

How does this influence the population for the bill start_t when user created a bill via bill now when regular bill is suppressed?

- Created account on 3/26 with annual cycle product only
- 4/26 ran billing, bill is not suppressed.
- 5/26 executed bill_now opcode for this account which triggered billing.
- Regular bill is suppressed and billinfo object has following values:

This no longer matches the last_bill_t on the billinfo profile.

Please explain how this date is calculated based on how the billinfo dates are set?
