This topic explains how to use the "Create order" operation to remove a product from a subscription with a future-dated removal.

1. Determine the values of the following variables: Assuming a previous order will remove the rate plan ( $RPId ) on a future-dated removal date, which is later than the current removal date ( $Removal_date ).

   Variable	Description
   $SubscriptionNum	The number of the subscription to update. For example, A-S00000001 .
   $AccountNum	The number of the account that will own the order. For example, A00000001 .
   $RPId	The ID of the rate plan to remove from the subscription. For example, 402892c42ce80787012ce80ea2310019 .
   $Removal_date	The current removal date, 2021-05-01 .

2. Use the "Create order" operation to create an order under an existing account: To create the order under a new account instead of an existing account, specify the newAccount field instead of the existingAccountNumber field.
