- parent and child accounts are created when having pin virtual time (pvt) as 1-dec-2023, and they have billing day of month (BDOM) set as 1

- P1 product is purchased; CycleForwardMonthly (CFM) event is created for period "1-dec-2023 to 01-jan-2024"

- pvt set as 1-jan-2024 02:14

- run pin_cycle_fees; CFM event is created for period "1-jan-2024 to 01-feb-2024"

- both above CFM event are linked to /item object that will appear on invoice produced on 2-jan-2024, covering the period "1-dec-2023 to 01-jan-2024"

- set pvt as 1-jan-2024 04:30

- execute op_subscription_set_prodinfo and cancel P1 product

- new CFM event is created for refund of charge corresponding to period "1-jan-2024 to 01-feb-2024"; it is also linked to the same /item object as above two CFM events

- purchase new product P2; CFM event is created for period "1-jan-2024 to 01-feb-2024"; it is linked to /item object that will appear on invoice produced on 2-feb-2024

It is expected that CFM event created when P2 product is purchased will be linked to the same /item object as the other CFM events mentioned above ( that will appear on invoice produced on 2-jan-2024)
