Updating Pricing After Purchase

Not all pricing items can be updated after pricing is loaded and subscribers are using it.

You can make corrections and revisions to all pricing items except balance classes, meter classes, balances, meters, and products. For more information about pricing item corrections and revisions, see the discussion about pricing corrections and revisions.

Update Pricing After Purchase lists the conditions that determine whether a pricing item can be updated after purchase.
Table 1. Update Pricing After Purchase
Pricing Item Conditions
One time offers A one time offer can be added to a bundle that has been purchased.
Subscription offers A subscription offer cannot be added to a bundle that has been purchased.

You can request to modify an existing subscription offer, including the offer startTime and the offer endTime and any user-defined attributes. For more information, see the discussion about subscription modify offer and MtxRequestSubscriberModifyOffer in MATRIXX Subscriber Management API.

Group offers You can request to modify an existing group offer, including the offer startTime and the offer endTime and any user-defined attributes. For more information, see the discussion about MtxRequestGroupModifyOffer in MATRIXX Subscriber Management API.
Device offers You can request to modify one or more offers purchased by a device. For more information, see the discussion about MtxRequestDeviceModifyOffer in MATRIXX Subscriber Management API.
Default thresholds on a balance template or meter template If Unlocked is selected when setting up the template, the default values can be overridden by personal and group balance thresholds. The values can be higher than the default values set by the operator. For more information, see the discussion about default credit limits and thresholds.
Bundles Bundles can change the rating results of product offers within the bundle by directly referencing pricing components. These directly referenced pricing components (bundle components) override or supplement the charges, discounts, or grants of a product offer selected for rating that is in a bundle. This allows product offers to be created without having to consider if they will be included in a bundle.

Within a bundle, you can associate additional price components with a product offer that are not part of the product offer definition. These bundle-specific price components (bundle components) can replace or supplement the price components already in the offer.

Auto-renew price components (charges, discounts, and grants) can be included in subscription product offers owned by devices, subscribers, and groups, but not in global product offers. Auto-renew price components can be added as override components to a product offer in a bundle.

For more information about bundle pricing components, see the discussion about bundle components.

Purchase Packages A purchase package does not need to be defined in pricing. You can add and remove purchased items from a purchase package. For more information, see the discussion about purchase packages.
