Common scenarios

Why renewal timing differs from expectations

When consolidation is active:
  • Renewal invoices align with consolidation rules.
  • Automation settings do not control timing for those services.

Manual status and its effect on renewal automation

A contract product’s status directly affects whether renewal automation applies. If a contract product is manually set to Active, for example, when it has an unpaid invoice or is approaching suspension, the system’s automation intervals will not act on it. The contract remains in its manually assigned status regardless of any configured suspend, cancel, or close intervals.
Active contract product
Because of this, manually setting a contract to Active bypasses the protections that renewal automation provides. It is generally not recommended unless you are actively monitoring and managing that contract on a daily basis, as overdue invoices and lapsed services will not be handled automatically.
