Now, when I want to edit the subscription right after, a message appears saying “This subscription has expired. You can only edit active subscriptions.”.
Not sure what the intended functional behaviour is supposed to be, but it doesn’t seem to make much sense you can’t edit an active subscription. Even if there’s some logic reasoning behind it, the UI is very confusing to say the least.
It also seems something that didn’t occur last week (but not 100% of that).
Why should I not be allowed to update an active (and paid) subscription? Is it because I try to do this on the same day as the start date of the subscription perhaps?
The Product’s ‘term’ property was misinterpreted. Setting it to ‘12 months’ automatically ends a subscription 12 months after the start date, and is unrelated to the billing frequency. So if you have a subscription service that automatically renews year after year, just leave the Product Term empty.
Having said that, the situational warnings/messages shown in the UI are highly confusing.
