2012-2Q (v002): Billing: Every [N] Invoices
An update has been applied to SIMPLer to allow operators to setup staggered subscriptions on a customer account. This feature allows a user to define how often the staggered subscriptions should show up on the customers regular recurring invoice. To avail of this feature, go to your customer account and click on "modify in the subscriptions details section as shown in Fig. 1.

For any subscription that should not appear monthly you could enter how often it should appear on an invoice in the "Every [N] Invoices" field as shown in Fig. 3.
Fig 3. Subscriptions
In the example above, the customer is setup for monthly billing (defined by the customer's billing Frequency on another page). They will be charged for Residential Internet ($41.95) every month but on every 3rd invoice generated, the customer will be charged the additional $16.75 for their Quarterly Web Hosting on the invoice.
Note: This feature is not used to adjust billing frequency. If a single subscription is added with a value for Every [N] Invoice and there is no regular recurring subscription, then errors will occur as there will not be any valid subscriptions during certain months.
