Creating a New Service Plan
A service plan is a package of services provided on certain terms and at particular prices. Service plan itself defines the refund policy used, subscription renewal settings and billing algorithm. These settings become subscription settings after service plan is purchased and can be configured as necessary. Other settings, such as taxation, are defined by other OA Billing entities, such as plan category and service terms.
To add a service plan:
- Go to Products > Service Plans.
- Click Add New Service Plan. The new service plan creation wizard starts.
-
Select the service plan type.
The wizard allows you to set up quickly specialized service plans, namely:
- Domain Registration service plan
- Shared Hosting service plan
- VPS Hosting service plan
- SSL Certificate service plan
- Generic service plan (can be used in all cases not covered by the other types)
To create one of the enumerated plans, select the respective option at the starting screen of the New Service Plan wizard. You will be guided step-by-step through the specific settings for selected plan. To roll the wizard one step back, click Cancel. After you have selected and configured subscription periods for a service plan, you can proceed with service plan settings following the wizard or finalize service plan creation at any moment by clicking the Finish button. All the settings entered during the service plan creation can be changed later, when service plan is already added.
: depending on a plan type, the number of steps in the wizard (and their sequence) may vary.
