[New] Changing the day that a customer is making payments

The CreateSchedule changes the date payment collections will occur on an account. This will change the current and any future Payment Schedules that have been defined for the account.

Specify the following parameters:

• Installment
  Specify the installment amount >=$1

• PaymentFrequency
  Specify the frequency of the payment: OneOff, Weekly, Fortnightly, FourWeekly, Monthly, BiMonthly, Quarterly

• MinimumEffectiveDate
  The newly created schedule will start on the MinimumEffectiveDate provided but will not automatically be aligned with an existing schedule.

• DeleteFutureSchedules
  The DeleteFutureSchedules property will cause any schedules that have been set-up to come into effect after this schedule to be discarded and replaced with this schedule. Set to true.

• AdjustFutureSchedules
  The AdjustFutureSchedules property will ensure the frequency of future, already defined schedules, are set to the frequency defined in this new schedule. Set to true.

• OverrideBillingCycleAlignment
  This property overrides default behaviour and sets the start date of the new payment schedule to be the MinimumEffectiveDate. Set to true.

• PreviousScheduleEndDate
  the PreviousScheduleEndDate property must also be set to close the payment schedule immediately prior appropriately.

Scenario

In the scenario where the new schedule is to start soon after the next payment date, it will likely be appropriate to set the PreviousScheduleEndDate property prior to the next payment date. This will prevent the account from being billed twice in a short time frame.
For example, when changing the payment schedule from weekly on Wednesdays to weekly on Thursdays the PreviousScheduleEndDate might be set to the forthcoming Tuesday.
