An IT service provider purchased Revenue Cloud. Currently, the provider needs to mark its Super Duper Product as an automatically renewable product with no manual interaction from users.
How should a Revenue Cloud Consultant handle this requirement?
(150--250 words)
In Salesforce CPQ and Subscription Management, automatic renewal behavior is driven at the product level via the Auto Renew field on the Product2 record. When this checkbox is selected, any subscription created for that product automatically inherits the renewal behavior --- meaning that the system will create renewal opportunities, quotes, or contracts automatically without user intervention.
The Auto Renew setting on Product2 defines renewal eligibility for all subscriptions derived from that product, ensuring consistent automation across all customers and contracts.
The Asset object does not directly control renewal logic; instead, it reflects renewal status after processing. The Product Selling Model defines how products are sold (one-time, recurring, usage-based), but renewal logic is still determined by the Product2-level Auto Renew setting.
Exact Extract from Salesforce Subscription Management Guide:
''To enable automatic subscription renewal without user action, select the Auto Renew checkbox on the Product2 record. Subscriptions created from this product will automatically renew upon term completion.''
