Hi,

I am trying to implement an account service that would deduct 'M' amount of credit if card has not been used for 'X' days every 'Y' days.

For example, deduct 1$ if account have not been used in 15 days every 15 days.

I have this cron job set :
0 12 * * * php /usr/share/a2billing/Cronjobs/a2billing_batch_process.php

It is set to run daily at 12.
Also I have an account service set like the image below:


However, it is not working as intended. I can see in the logs that the cronjob is running on time, however, nothing is happening with the service. When I attempt to run the script manually like this:


The script runs correctly, but the charge is deducted from random accounts and it is not detecting only those who have not used their accounts in the last 15 days.

I think I have misunderstood something in the above set up, please if possible explain how the script works, and how I should set it up to obtain the above required. Do I need to edit anything with the Cron Job date?

Thanks,

Hi

With the recurring type you have selected, there is no "Y" value, so whatever you enter in Period does not apply,

Joe

Thank you for your reply.

So what should I set to achieve the following scenario:

"Deduct 1$ if account have not been used in last 15 days every 15 days."

Can the present script achieve this or do you suggest writing a new one for this function? If not, then what exactly is the "not used for X days" setting used for?

Your help is much appreciated and if I had to develop something I will sure share with the community.

Thanks,
Rshack

Hi Joe,

Could elaborate on the x -value and the y - value? i'm facing similar problem. can't find anything on the documentation. does the x and y value goes in the same box?

Hi

Read the dropdown and substitute X and Y for the values you have put in X and Y.
