This topic explains how to schedule a subscription cancellation using the REST API by creating an order with the Terms And Conditions order action.

1. Determine the values of the following variables:

   Variable	Description
   $AccountNum	The number of the account that will own the order. For example, A00000001 .
   $Today	Today's date. For example, 2025-02-12 .
   $SubscriptionNum	The number of the subscription to cancel. For example, A-S00000001 .
   $ScheduledCancelDate	The date to cancel the subscription. For example, 2025-04-01 .

2. Use the 'Create an order' API operation to create an order for the existing subscription. The following is a request example: If you want to suspend or resume the subscription on a future date, specify the date in the scheduledSuspendDate or scheduledResumeDate field. When specifying multiple scheduled dates in the same order action, the date values must follow the rules described in Introduction to scheduled actions for subscription automation .

   Request	POST /v1/orders/
   Request Body	{ "existingAccountNumber": "$AccountNum", "orderDate": "$Today", "subscriptions": [ { "subscriptionNumber": "$SubscriptionNum", "orderActions": [ { "type": "TermsAndConditions", "termsAndConditions": { "scheduledCancelDate": "$ScheduledCancelDate" } } ] } ] }
