Change terms and conditions of subscriptions

Creating and amending subscriptions in the Zuora Billing UI is:

Overview

Changing the terms and conditions allows you to extend or shorten the initial term or renewal term of the subscription. You can also autorenew a subscription in advance of the subscription's autorenewal date.

This amendment cannot be used to change the term start date. Although the amendment detail has a field to amend the value for Current Term Start Date, the amended date will only affect the initial term's end date. This does not affect the initial term start date. For example, if you create a subscription that has an initial term of twelve months with a term start date of 1/1/2009, and then amend the current term start date to 2/1/2009, your current term end date will be changed from 1/1/2010 to 2/1/2010. This effectively extends the subscription term by one month.

Use the following steps to change the terms and conditions on a subscription. Follow these steps for each subscription you want to change.
