Custom Logic overview
The Custom Logic feature allows you to define logic rules for standard and custom objects by using decision tables, decision trees, or functions. When objects are created or updated, Zuora triggers the rules to validate data accuracy or manipulate field values.
This feature is in the Early Availability phase. We are actively soliciting feedback from a small set of early adopters before releasing it as generally available.
To turn on the Custom Logic feature in Production environments, submit a request at Zuora Global Support.
Triggering mechanism
When an object is created or updated through the UI or API, Zuora triggers the custom logic defined on this object type. If the custom logic is evaluated successfully, Zuora will create or update the object. If the evaluation fails, Zuora will display the error message configured in the custom logic and will not create or update the object.
