In the absence of a property management system, subscription billing can be used to handle billing for property leases. In the UK, the majority of property leases are billed on the basis of English quarter days. The periods are 25/12 to 24/3, 25/3 to 23/6, 24/6 to 28/9, 28/9 to 24/12. The selection of any other billing frequency cannot give the correct billing period, which must print on the invoice (e.g. 24/6 to 28/9).

The only work around is to create an individual billing line for each quarter period using the "annual" billing frequency so that the revenue will defer correctly.

This means a lot of manual work to set up the lines and it means that standard functionality such as CPI indexation and renewals must all be processed manually.

There should be an option of selecting English quarter days as a billing frequency so that one recurring line is created so that the standard recurring billing features can be used.
