How are disk space overage charges calculated?

Hello,

 

I have set my charge amount in WHMCS however I am a little confused about how it calculates how many MB they have gone over?

 

For example, if that amount they are over by fluctuates throughout the month, does WHMCS take an average and charge based on that? Or does it grab a snapshot on a particular day during the month and use that value?

 

Kind regards,

Chris

It updates the latest usage for disk and bandwidth daily. WHMCS does not calculates monthly averages for disk usage.

 

"Update Usage Statistics

 

Enabling this option will display disk & bandwidth usage statistics from the hosting control panel (where supported) inside the WHMCS admin and client areas and update them on a daily basis."

Hello,

 

Thank you.

 

So for example if a customer has a 1GB plan and they use 1.8GB near the start of the billing period but as long as they come back down underneath 1GB before the end of the billing period then they will not be charged disk space overage?

 

Kind regards,

Chris

Hi Chris,

 

there isn't a way to do this by default with WHMCS, but there is an addon that can do it...

it seems to have not been updated since 2013, so you may want to check with the author first that it works with the latest WHMCS release before buying it.
