So what you are saying here is that if I renew in advance (1 month here) with the pay and signup, then the payment is not processed until my subscription ends 31/12 ?
I allready have this cronjob running every 2 hours, and the payment is still not initiated at QuickPay, so that is why I ask.
How are you renewing in advance for a recurring payment? Manual renewals should not be possible on recurring subscriptions.

Well, first all our members were signed up manully in backend (I just marked them as paid) in february, as they had allready payed the member fee in another way (The way we used to). So now every member can renew in advance for the year 2021 and choose to pay single or pay and subscripe to recurring. So there has not actually been any real payments in the system yet.
But I believe this would be the same case if every user had made a single payment the first year, and then now, the second year, they want to change to recurring payment.
Ok, as I understand it they were originally manual renewals. They've then renewed themselves into a recurring subscription. In that case yes it should have billed immediately. This however sounds like a problem with QuickPay still. The initial payment is always done immediately and that amount is correctly being sent to QuickPay so am unsure why QuickPay has not billed them. We are using the below API.
Please contact QuickPay and have them take a look. The only difference for recurring subscriptions and non-recurring from our end is we have set "type" to "subscription". The internal scheduler takes care of the recurring payments themselves, but initial payment should have happened immediately. The scheduler_state and scheduler_next_maturity database columns in _cbsubs_payment_baskets hold the state and date for this functionality.
I however do not recommend using gateways that cannot provide the full billing process and require the internal scheduler. I highly recommend everyone be making the move to Stripe.

The flow at QuickPay is that you first create a subscription, and after that you initiate a payment on that subscription - that is not happening automatically.
This is a very critical problem as I have two sites with over 500 members which have to pay within the next month ! And the whole reason to use CBSubs for this was, that people could sign up for recurring payment.
It is to late to change to Stripe now - this has to work...
