Applying High-Growth Offers
High-Growth Offers can be applied via change orders in two scenarios:
High-Growth Offers at Mid-Term
This is used when you want to immediately grow Acrobat licenses. It requires a change order on the active subscription.
For example:
-
Previous State: Total Count = 100, Acrobat Count = 0, Price level hint: 14
-
Final State after the change order fulfillment: Total Count = 200, Acrobat Count = 100, Price level hint: 14
-
Applied attribute: The MOQ_100 rating attribute is applied to the eligible line item.
High-Growth Offers at Renewal
This can be used if you are planning to grow Acrobat licenses at renewal. It requires a scheduled change order between 7 and 3 days before the subscription anniversary date. For example:
-
Previous State: Total Count = 100, Acrobat Count = 10, Price level hint: 14
-
Final State after renewal: Total Count = 190, Acrobat Count = 100, Price level hint: 14
-
The MOQ_100 rating attribute is applied to the eligible line item.
Notes:
- If the customer has an MOQ and wishes to upgrade it, this can only be done mid-tern, not at renewal.
- You can see the eligible high-growth offers for a customer in the Renewal Preview available in the Adobe Resellers Management Console.
Order Placement Steps

Create a change order.

-
-
Specify the corresponding MOQ in the High Growth Offer field when prompted. The valid values are the following: MOQ_100, MOQ_250, MOQ_500.

parameter, as this will reflect the applied MOQ during fulfillment.

Steps to Follow when 3YC Prerequisites are not Met
The steps described below apply in the following cases:
