This topic explains how to extend a subscription term by creating a new term and setting key renewal dates.

When you renew a subscription, the current subscription term is extended by creating a new term. If any charge in your subscription has the billing period set as SubscriptionTerm, a new charge segment is generated for the new term. For more information, see Define Billing Periods and Segmented rate plan charges (charge segments) .
