Overview
Possible subscription statuses:
-
Active - subscription is valid; no payment required.
-
Not paid (not_paid) - child order for subscription renewal has been created; child order is pending payment.
-
Cancelled - subscription deactivated.
PMR subscriptions use the same statuses. However, after cancellation, the subscription resumption (restoration) option is not available to PMR subscriptions.

Case |
|
➀ |
⟶ Active |
A parent order is paid for, and a subscription is created. No subscription exists until the parent order is paid for. |
|
➁ |
Active ⟶ Not paid |
A child order for a renewal product to renew a subscription is created. The order has not yet been paid for. |
|
➂ |
Not paid ⟶ Active |
A child order for a renewal product to renew a subscription is paid for. The subscription term is extended. |
|
➃ |
Active ⟶ Cancelled |
The subscription requiring no payment for a renewal (no unpaid child order is exists) is cancelled. |
|
➄ |
Not paid ⟶ Cancelled |
The subscription pending payment for a renewal (unpaid child order exists) is cancelled. |
|
➅ |
Cancelled ⟶ Active |
The cancelled subscription is resumed, but requires no payment for a renewal (no child order for a renewal has been created yet). |
|
➆ |
Cancelled ⟶ Not paid |
The cancelled subscription is resumed and pending payment for a renewal (unpaid child order required for the subscription exists). |
If a child order for a renewal product is created but is unpaid, and a subscription term is expired, then a subscription remains in the not paid status. No automatic change of status takes place.
Subscription Activity
The subscription activity is a separate attribute. It is not a subscription status. The subscription status works with the subscription activity attribute as follows:
-
As long as a subscription is active, it is renewable. When active, the subscription can have the following statuses: Active or Not Paid.
-
When deactivating a subscription (subscription activity becomes "false"), it becomes cancelled (subscription status changes to Cancelled).
-
When activating a subscription, it resumes after being cancelled (subscription status returns to Active or Not Paid).
In practice, changing the activity of a subscription is equal to executing the following actions with the subscription:
-
Cancel
-
Resume (restore)
The same requirements applied to executing these actions apply to changing the subscription activity.
