NSC | Quantity Difference Between Subscription Line Quantity and Revenue Arrangement or Element Qty

Scenario

A user noticed that the Subscription Pricing line showed a quantity of 1, while the Invoice showed quantity 1, rate 150,000.00, and amount 150,000.00.

However, the Revenue Arrangement displayed a quantity of 12. The user wanted to understand why the quantity was not consistent across all three records and how NetSuite determines quantity on Revenue Arrangements.

Explanation

This behavior is expected in SuiteBilling.

The Price Plan only displays pricing information for the item. In this case, the Subscription item is a recurring type that is billed monthly for 12 months. If there is 1 item per month, the full subscription term for 1 year results in a total quantity of 12 items on the Revenue Arrangement.
