Is there a better way to do this? I don’t see an option for “one-time upfront”. The best it looks like we can do is to bill a Service Contract yearly. 

Here’s my workaround. Please let me know if any has alternative suggestions. 

• Duration = x years
• Billing Period = Year
• Service Per Period - adjust line item to the x-year total 
  • Deferral Code - add x term deferral code (e.g. 3 years/36 months) 
• Run Service Contract Billing 
  • Deferral Schedule created after AR Invoice processing
  • Should accurately recognize revenue across x terms (in this case 36 months) 
• For years 2, 3, etc. - modify services period and zero out prices so no billing/revenue generation occurs

It’d be ideal if there was a Period option of “one time” or “only once” for upfront billing. I can submit an idea if there isn’t one already and if others believe that’s needed.
