Using Bandwidth Overage Billing with cPanel Question

[WebzPro]

For the first time we need to use Bandwidth Overage Billing. The set up is straight forward except the WHM set up.

 

We currently have WHM set to suspend clients over bandwidth usage and wish to keep this. We have only one client that we wish to be billed for overage usage.

 

In order to do this it looks like we need to disable in WHM.....

 

Bandwidth limit check [?]

Automatically suspend HTTP service for accounts that exceed their bandwidth limit. Disabling this will disable all bandwidth notifications and treat all accounts as having unlimited bandwidth.

 

This disables suspending all other when they exceed their bandwidth. I do not want this.

 

So can I set a higher limit under Account Functions >> Limit Bandwidth Usage in WHM. That will keep the one account live and because WHMCS takes its information from the package limit it should correctly show the overage in WHMCS. WHMCS is taking the overage simply from the bandwidth usage log correct?

Create a new package, set both soft and hard limits in whmcs, change the client to the new package, enable overage billing on that product, get a coffee and congratulate yourself on a job done

Thanks, still that does not answer the question.

 

In WHM the setting Bandwidth limit check [?], will automatically suspend any account past their bandwidth usage. Does this need to be disabled in order to work correctly? The account goes past their bandwidth limit cPanel will suspend the account correct? The setting in WHMCS does not over ride the cPanel settings.

You put the settings into whmcs, you don't set anything in WHM
