Ok. I've dug thru the documentation and forums to try to find an answer to my questions, but with no luck. I apologize if this is a repeat.

I have Ubercart set up with recurring payments ready to go. I am able to complete the check-out process successfully and in the order's "Admin Comments" section I am able to see "Recurring fee 1 added to order." However, I am unable to find any details showing the next billing date or any other recurring fee details.

My questions are:

1) Is recurring payment being handled within drupal? I know various gateways offer auto-recurring services, but it appears the the your recurring payments module is handling that on its own as long as a credit card is stored.

2) If so, where do I go to look for details on next billing dates, successful auto-charges, etc.?

Any details you can provide would be great. Thanks!

Cool profile pic award.

Recurring payments handled by UC_recurring.module and workflow_ng
I assume based on your post these are already setup and configured. so, the system will create a purchase and auto submit to the processor if you activated auto renew. otherwise it sends e-mail notification to the user requesting renewal.

auto charges will report in admin/store/reports or via e-mail if you set notification.

Details on next billing is a little more obscure. as the renewal order is not generated until the specified time. However, If you assign role-expire you can check customer page for expiration date.

I am sure some configuration with cck, views may offer a more organized report display.

Also, to complete the process, you need to be using a payment processor module that integrates the recurring API. At the moment, I only know that the Auth.net CIM module does this: http://www.ubercart.org/contrib/2537
