How to synchronize an active subscription with a new updated service plan?

If you followed above steps, new orders on the service plan will show the new prices. But what if you already have active customer subscriptions with the old prices? Like we have learned in this introduction, a copy is made of the service plan when your order it for a customer. This copy will keep the old price until it is synchronized with the active Service Plan, or your subscription is renewed for a new term.

To synchronize an active subscription with the new updated service plan you need to do follow the next few steps.

1. Still in the reseller’s billing control panel:
   - go back to the Service plans in the left menu
   - select the Service plan we edited
   - On the General screen you will find a button called “Update Subscriptions”:

   

2. By default the changes will be applied to All Subscription of this type. You can however filter on once specific subscription. 
   
   - Below Subscription sync options select only the “Update Subscription Prices” checkbox.
   - In our example we also changed the Resource prices. Below Resource sync options we also select the “Update Prices” option.
   - In the “Install into provisioning system” select the option "Immediately" from the pull down menu.
   - Now press the Update Subscription button.
   

   

Within a few minutes all prices are updated for the subscriptions based on this service plan. However you might still see one invoice for the old price, as the renewal date for this month might have been already passed for some of your customers.
The next month’s renewal will show the new updated price.
