Setup: Recurring
Recurring bills are based on engagements, there are 2 methodologies for how to setup the engagements:1. Have 1 engagement and tie that engagement
to all projects to have one price that covers all projects
2. Have separate engagements and split the recurring bill amount among the separate services offered
