POST /customers/{customer-id}/update_billing_info

This method is used for updating the 'Billing Info' - the Billing Address and 'vat_number' attributes - of the customer. For updating the other customer attributes use our Update Customer API.

During this operation if Billing Info(Billing Address and vat_number) is not already present it will get added. Whereas if it is present already, the existing values will be replaced. i.e existing values for Billing Address and vat_number will be cleared and the new values will be set.

**Note:**When an invoice is generated for a customer, the billing address provided for the customer will be stored with the invoice. If the First Name, Last Name, and Company fields do not contain any information under Billing Info, the same will be picked from Customer Details if the same is available there.
