Set the product billing cycles. The last cycle entered should be the cycle on which to start staggering fulfillments. The last cycle should always be shippable. Do not enter a cycle for the non-shippable billings.
There may be more than 1 billing cycle entered. For example, consider the following scenario:
Cycle 1 - Product is initially purchased and delivered
Cycle 2 - Product is billed and delivered
Cycle 3 - Billing only. The billing is same amount as cycle 2.
Cycle 4 - repeat cycle 2
Cycle 5 - repeat cycle 3
Continue repeating cycles 2 and 3 indefinitely
The proper configuration for this is:
Check the Stagger Fulfillments box
Set the cycle to 2
Cycle 1 - Set Price, check the Shippable box, and set Bill Delay
Cycle 2 - Set Price, check the Shippable box, and set Bill Delay
Do not set any other billing cycles
