Important You can’t turn on Billing when Subscription Management is enabled in your org.

1. From Setup, in the Quick Find box, enter Billing, and then select **Billing Settings**.
2. Turn on Billing.

To avoid facing access issues after turning on Billing and before setting up Billing features, assign the Billing Admin and Billing Operations User permission sets to users with the System Administrator profile.

Note

After turning on Billing, order activation succeeds only if the Order records have values for the Bill to Contact, Billing Address, and Shipping Address fields. Order activation fails if any of these values are missing.

Set up Billing to show transaction amounts in both the transactional currency and your corporate currency.")
