Ref: https://docs.oracle.com/en/cloud/saas/project-portfolio-management/19b/oapjb/create-customer-contract.html#OAPJB70183 Bill Plan - Create a bill plan within a contract that uses the invoice method you require. Assign the bill plan to one or more contract lines. A set of instructions on a contract that define how to invoice a customer. Multiple contract lines on a contract can use the same or different bill plans. Invoice Method is used in creating Bill Plan - not a separate setup.
