Placing a Scheduled Order to Reduce the Number of Licenses in a Subscription at Renewal (New Custom UI)
Important:
- There are a few business scenarios in which renewal dates in CloudBlue may be misaligned with the ones in Adobe. To avoid confusion, please always refer to the Renewal Date specified in the Adobe platform, as this will be the only valid date for all business purposes.
- For additional details on the Adobe business rules, refer to the following section: Managing Adobe Products on the CloudBlue Marketplace: Cancellation, Upsizing, Downsizing
