Overview

This guide walks you through how to split Fee, Credit, and Refund items managed under Adjusting Entries and includes them in invoices.

This allows you to, for example, split RI or Savings Plans upfront payments into 12 instalments for invoicing, or apportion support fees consolidated under a Payer Account across multiple accounts.


How to Split Adjusting Entries

  1. From the left menu, click Invoices > Adjusting Entries

  2. Select the item you want to allocate, then click ... > Split Adjusting Entries

  3. Choose the account you want to assign the amount to, then click Next in the bottom right

  4. If there's a rounding difference, select the account to which the remainder should be allocated

  5. Enter the desired allocation amount for the account(s) you selected

  6. Review the entries for accuracy and click Next

  7. The final configuration summary will be displayed — if everything looks correct, click Execute

  8. Once executed, the split recalculated billing data item will appear with a Split label

The split items can then be applied to the relevant invoices in the same way as standard Adjusting Entries.


Calculation Logic

After splitting, items are processed in the same way as standard Adjusting Entries. Values are retained in USD to 10 decimal places, and decimal rounding is applied when the exchange rate is applied.

  1. At the time of splitting, values are retained in USD to 10 decimal places and reflected in the invoice

  2. When calculating the total amount per account, the exchange rate is applied

  3. After converting to the billing currency, decimal rounding is applied according to the method configured in Ripple's Invoice Settings


Splitting Reserved Instances (RI) and Savings Plans (SP)

Steps

  1. From the left menu, click Invoices > Adjusting Entries

  2. Select the month in which the RI or Savings Plan you want to split was purchased

  3. Click the vertical ... to the right of the CSV download button

  4. Click Split Upfront — a list of purchased RIs and Savings Plans will be displayed

  5. Click Split next to the RI or Savings Plan you want to split — it will be divided according to the contract term: 12 instalments for a 1-year term, or 36 instalments for a 3-year term

  6. The split costs will be reflected in each month's Adjusting Entries — from here, you can include them in invoices by selecting the target Billing Group and month, in the same way as standard Adjusting Entries


Important Notes

When downloading CSV data after splitting, both the pre-split total amount and the split amounts will be displayed

Example: If $100 is split into $20 and $80, the CSV will show three entries: $100, $20, and $80 — resulting in duplicate amounts in the output. Please be aware of this when reviewing the CSV data.
