| Performance and model improvements | Zuora AI responses are now faster and more capable across agents. We upgraded the underlying model, sped up data query results, improved report routing and summaries, and made bill-run lookups leaner.

Invoicing and Tax |
The Send external engine consolidated discount and regular charge billing rule is now generally available for all customers with the Taxation feature enabled. Previously offered under an Early Availability program, this capability is now ready for broader use across modern tax engine integrations. When enabled, this billing rule consolidates tax-exclusive discount charges with their associated regular charges before sending data to external tax engines. Instead of transmitting separate positive and negative line items, Zuora sends a single net taxable amount (charge minus discount). This reduces the number of line items and improves performance, especially for accounts with high volumes of discounts. This billing rule is supported for the following tax integrations:

|
Invoicing and Tax |
The Invoice Separately field on the Invoice Schedule object is now available in Data Query, providing consistent access across Data Query, APIs, and Data Sources. With this enhancement, you can query the Invoice Separately flag directly in Data Query to identify invoice schedules that are configured to be invoiced separately. This improves consistency across Zuora's data access capabilities and enables more flexible reporting and data analysis. | |
|
Invoicing and Tax |
Zuora now supports tax calculation for draft billing documents generated by Bill Runs when using Configurable Tax Apps. With this enhancement, draft invoices can include calculated taxes before they are posted, making it easier to review and validate tax amounts earlier in the billing process. A new billing rule, Enable tax calculation for draft billing documents from bill runs when using external tax engine, controls this behavior. The rule is enabled by default if you use Direct Avalara or Direct Avalara with Configurable Tax Apps. If you use Configurable Tax Apps only, you can enable the feature after upgrading. This enhancement provides greater visibility into tax amounts during invoice review, streamlines your billing workflows, and reduces the need for manual workarounds. | |

New and changed features
|
Feature |
Description |
Updated |
|---|---|---|
CPQ X | A new setting Enable Clearing Custom Fields is available under Admin Config and is turned off by default. When you enable the setting, clear custom fields in Quote Studio, and send the quote to Zuora, the corresponding custom field values are cleared in Zuora. This behavior applies to Subscription, RatePlan, and RatePlanCharge objects. | 10.63 |
CPQ X | Sales Rep Agent now supports quote previews and rule-based validation when creating and updating quotes. This functionality is currently supported only for New Subscription quotes. You can preview details and refine quote rules directly through follow-up prompts. | 10.63 |
CPQ X | Zuora CPQ supports enhanced unit-based Prepaid with Drawdown (PPDD) settings in Quote Studio for Multi Subscription Quoting. | 10.63 |
CPQ X | A new setting Skip Tax for Preview is available under Admin Config and is turned off by default. When enabled, tax calculations are skipped during interactive Quote Studio editing, reducing unnecessary API calls to your tax engine. Tax is still calculated when you save or submit quotes. | 10.63 |
CPQ X | For a prepaid charge, Billing can return multiple fund entries for different validity periods. Zuora CPQ uses the fund entry whose Charge Number and Start Date exactly match the Charge Segment and does not roll up subsequent monthly entries within the segment date range. Therefore, FundedBalance__c and FundPricing__c reflect a single validity-period slice rather than the full segment amount. | 10.63 |
CPQ X | Quote Studio now supports displaying Charge Number, Preview Charge ID, and Charge Override Reference ID in the charge table. Administrators can add these fields to the zqu__CPQX_Charge_Display_Fields field set on the Quote Rate Plan Charge object. | 10.63 |
|
CPQ X |
We have introduced two new configuration options in that let administrators control whether users can add or remove tiers for Tiered and Volume charge models in Quote Studio. The following configuration options are available:
When enabled and configured, these configuration options prevent users assigned to the configured Salesforce profiles from adding or removing tiers for Tiered and Volume charges in Quote Studio. The corresponding Add and Delete icons are hidden in the Tiered and Volume charge window, preventing users from performing these actions. |
10.62 |
|
CPQ X |
A new Quote-level SAD/CAD propagation to QuoteAmendment records setting is available under Admin Config. The setting is deactivated by default. When activated, updating the Service Activation Date or Customer Acceptance Date at the quote level also updates the corresponding date on the related amendment records, even when no other charge-level or amendment changes are made. |
10.62 |
|
CPQ X |
Headless integrations can now pass charge overrides when adding a product to a quote, which removes the need for a separate API call to update pricing after the product is added. When you call addProducts(), specify a chargeOverrides map keyed by Zuora Charge ID. You can use the map to provide supported standard or custom charge fields and values, such as Effective Price and Discount. The specified overrides are applied as soon as the product is initialized on the quote. Overrides are applied selectively. Only charges whose Zuora Charge ID is included in the chargeOverrides map are updated. Unrecognized field names and invalid values are skipped, and the add-product operation continues successfully. Existing integrations that do not provide chargeOverrides are unaffected and require no changes. See sample code. |
10.62 |
|
CPQ X |
Zuora CPQ provides enhanced Opportunity Product Sync support for Multi Subscription Quoting (MSQ). You can start Opportunity Product Sync from the primary parent quote. Zuora CPQ then processes each child quote independently and creates Opportunity Products on the parent opportunity. |
10.62 |
|
CPQ X |
Starting with Quotes version 10.62, the SOQL queries run in user mode instead of system mode. As a result, Quotes users must have the required object-level and field-level permissions to access the standard objects, Zuora 360 objects, and related fields that Quotes queries at runtime. Without the required permissions, non-administrator users might see access-related errors when they use Quotes. Before you upgrade to CPQ 10.62, review the permission sets assigned to your Quotes users and confirm that the users can access the required standard objects, Zuora 360 objects, and related fields. If you use custom permission sets instead of the Zuora Quotes End User permission set, compare your custom permission sets with the Zuora Quotes End User permission set and update them to grant the required access. See, Zuora Community post on required permissions changes. |
10.62 |
|
CPQ X |
Zuora CPQ resets the Zuora Connection Settings after a Salesforce Partial Copy or Full Copy sandbox refresh. Administrators must reconfigure the sandbox connection settings after the refresh. This enhancement prevents production connection settings from being used in sandbox environments and reduces the risk of sandbox activity being sent to production. |
10.62 |
|
CPQ X |
Quote Studio now supports pagination in the bulk Suspend and Resume configuration window for Multi Subscription Quoting (MSQ). |
10.62 |
|
CPQ X |
Quote Studio provides an additional Quote Start Date alignment option for non-ramp quotes. A new Align Initial Actions on QSD to new QSD and keep future dated actions unchanged option is available in . This option aligns initial actions with the updated Quote Start Date and keeps future-dated actions unchanged. The zQuoteUtil.ProductAlignmentType global method also supports this alignment option through the ALIGN_ADD_PRODUCTS_SYNC_WITH_QSD value. For ramp quotes, continue to use the existing ALIGN_ADD_PRODUCTS_SYNC_WITH_QSD_RAMP value. |
10.62 |
|
CPQ X |
Payment profile support has been enhanced to improve payment method selection and validation during quote submission.
|
10.62 |
|
CPQ X |
Zuora CPQ now supports Overlapping Commitments in Quote Studio through child commitments, enabling you to model overlapping commitment hierarchies within a quote. Child commitments can be associated with a parent commitment to represent a narrower scope of charges or accounts while preserving the broader parent commitment context. |
10.62 |
|
CPQ X |
Quote Studio supports creating Bill To and Sold To contacts at the subscription level when you submit quotes through Orders for the following actions:
With this enhancement, you can use existing Salesforce contacts to create subscription contacts for a new billing account during the quoting flow. |
10.62 |
|
CPQ X |
Quote Studio supports up to 10,000 characters in the Special Terms and Notes field on quotes. This enhancement extends the existing zqu__Terms__c field, preserves existing values, and does not require changes to layouts, field sets, or permissions. |
10.62 |
|
CPQ X |
Zuora CPQ supports enhanced unit-based Prepaid with Drawdown (PPDD) settings in Quote Studio. These settings help you configure more prepayment and rollover options for unit-based commitments. New fields are available for the following configurations:
These fields provide greater flexibility when you configure prepayment behavior. The enhanced PPDD lets you define the following:
For more information, see Enhanced Unit-Based Prepaid with Drawdown (PPDD) in Quote Studio. |

|
CPQ X |
The Quote Studio sidebar now keeps the close icon within the sidebar panel, ensuring that it remains visible when you scroll the page in Salesforce orgs. |
10.62 |
|
CPQ X |
Sales Rep Agent now supports creating and updating quotes. You can create a basic quote from the Account page and refine it through follow-up prompts. For more information, see Sales Rep Agent for quote creation. |

Payments | Zuora now captures the Mastercard Transaction Link Identifier (TLID) returned by the Adyen v2 gateway for Mastercard cardholder-initiated transactions, including 3DS2 flows, and stores it with the payment method's stored credential profile data. For subsequent Mastercard merchant-initiated transactions, Zuora sends the stored TLID to Adyen with the network transaction reference and refreshes the stored value when a new TLID is returned. This support applies to the Adyen v2 integration. No configuration is required, and the TLID is not exposed through the API. | 2026.Q3.1.0 |

Revenue
Presents release notes and resolved issues for Zuora Revenue in 2026.Q3 product release.
New and changed features
| Feature | Description | Updated |
|---|---|---|
Rip and replace | Rip and Replace is the Zuora Revenue capability for rip and replace when contractual balance is carried forward to the replacement contract—for example, when a short-pay amount is added to the new deal or an overpayment is credited against it. The replacement contract becomes the governing commercial agreement. Prior contracts are superseded. Remaining contractual balances and performance obligations roll forward to the replacement contract so revenue recognition continues from the correct position—not as if the prior deal never existed, and not as two fully independent obligations. If supersede events are processed incorrectly, recognized revenue and remaining obligation can misstate current-period results, and month-end close can require manual correction. Rip The replacement contract becomes the active commercial agreement; prior contracts are no longer the governing arrangement. Replace Contractual balances and performance obligations from the prior contract(s) roll forward to the replacement contract. Ripped contract (line) The existing contract or line that is being superseded. Replacement contract (line) The new contract or line that receives rolled-forward balances and obligations. Rip and Replacement Process The scheduled program that links ripped and replacement lines and performs rollover calculations after replacement transactions are collected. | Added: July 28, 2026 |
Balancing segment support in Transfer Accounting | Zuora Revenue now supports balancing segments in Transfer Accounting. You can configure balancing segments in the Interface Setup page so the system evaluates entries by segment and automatically creates balancing adjustments when needed. This helps prevent debit and credit mismatches caused by currency conversion and rounding differences in functional and reporting currency postings, reduces manual reconciliation, and improves general ledger posting reliability. | |
Manage Mass Actions (MMA) | Update Schedules Enhancement (Null/Empty Segment Support): The Update Schedules option now supports updating empty or null accounting segment positions. You can use NULL as the Old Value to populate missing segment values, build a complete account string from an empty column, or fill specific empty positions while continuing to replace existing values as before. This applies to Revenue and Liability account segments across schedule types and to standard cost for Cost schedules. | |
Additional data query objects | We have added more Revenue data objects to Data Query to expand access to commonly used reporting data. These updates make more Revenue data available for reporting, analytics, and downstream use cases, helping teams query commonly used data more easily. Further, we have added two more Revenue data objects to Data Query, RevenueConsumptionUsageTrack and RevenueConsumptionUsageUpload to expland access to commonly used reporting data. | |
Waterfall historical and aggregation enhancements | The Waterfall Report now features an optional 'As of Period' filter, enabling you to generate reports using either live schedule data or historical snapshots. This enhancement offers greater flexibility, allowing you to toggle between live data for the current period and snapshot data for closed periods. | |
Revenue Contract modification transparency | We have added clearer visibility into revenue contract version history and contract modification details. You can now access queryable version-level and line-level information, including contract modification rules and accounting treatments, through data query to support audit and reporting use cases. | |

API
Lists updates on REST API, Quickstart API, and SOAP API in 2026.Q3 product release.
REST API
For the detailed API documentation, see API Reference.
For a summary of REST API updates and documentation updates in the Zuora API Reference, see API Changelog.
Quickstart API
Zuora offers two sets of APIs for Billing, Payments, and Platform: the v1 API (the REST API) and the Quickstart API.
Zuora's v1 API provides complete coverage to our Zuora Billing, Payments, and Platform features. Zuora's Quickstart API represents a simplified programmatic experience and a subset of coverage for common e-commerce use cases. While often erroneously referred to as the v2 API, the Quickstart API is NOT a replacement for the v1 API and is no longer recommended for new integrations. See Quickstart API Reference.
Developers who need to access the full breadth of Zuora Billing, Payments, and Platform functionalities should use the v1 API, or our v3 SDKs (v1 for C# SDK) that are built on the v1 API.
SOAP API
Current WSDL version: 155
For more information, see SOAP API.
SOAP API change history
For a summary of updates made to the SOAP API in recent Zuora releases, see Zuora SOAP API Version History.
