transaction.ready

Occurs when a transaction is ready to be billed. Its status field changes to ready.

Transactions are ready when they have all the required fields against them to be transitioned to billed or completed. This includes items, customer_id, and address_id. Paddle automatically marks transactions as ready when these fields are present.

When working with manually-collected transactions (invoices), transaction.updated may occur immediately after to add invoice_id and adjusted_totals.
