English term or phrase: HOLD BILLING/HOLD UPDATE

This is a bit of a 'shot-in-the-dark'so to speak.
I have no context whatsoever, these are computer programming commands I am trying to sort out, they are just one word or short phrase commands.
This HOLD command comes up a lot.
I was wondering if anyone knew if there is a sort of port. convention for these programming terms, (a site or something?).
For HOLD, I was wonder: RETENÇAO; SEGURAR; EM SUSPENÇAO; ESPERA etc etc?

suspender faturamento/suspender atualização

Explanation:
I think that in the context of a computer program, "suspender" would be an appropriate term. "hold" suggests "don't do it just yet" without meaning "don't do it ever". In other words, suspend the action for the moment.
