Your consumption advice frequency is weekly and the billing cycle closing date is November 7, 2022. What happens when the Create Consumption Advice process is run on November 10, 2022?

The next billing-cycle close date is calculated by adding the weekly frequency (7 days) to the present close date of 7-Nov-2022, giving 14-Nov-2022. Because the Create Consumption Advice process is started on 10-Nov-2022, the current date is still before the next close date, so the frequency interval hasn’t completed. Per Oracle policy, the program therefore returns without producing a consumption advice and leaves the existing close date unchanged.

A. Advice can’t be generated before the 14-Nov close date, so no new close date (14-Nov) is set.

B. When no advice is produced, the close date isn’t rolled forward, so it never becomes 17-Nov.

D. Both the generation of advice and advancement of the close date to 17-Nov contradict process rules.
