Pending Subscription Processing overview

The Pending Subscription Processing feature allows you to modify contracts with pending charges and forecast revenues with estimated dates for pending charges. This feature is supported end-to-end by Order to Revenue. This feature is available in the Zuora UI and the Orders API.

With this feature, you can complete orders and activate subscriptions containing pending charges. Later on, you can activate the charges through the Update Product order action.

You can perform all order actions to amend your subscription with pending charges, except the Revert order action for single version subscriptions.

Availability

The Pending Subscription Processing feature is in the Early Adopter phase. We are actively soliciting feedback from a small set of early adopters before releasing it as generally available. If you want to join this early adopter program, submit a request at Zuora Global Support.
