Preliminary Remarks
A time-based subscription can consist of the following components:
One or more steps
one or more products
Bundle(s) with several products
The products within a bundle cannot be canceled separately. Only the entire subscription can be canceled, which is why the conditions in the product contract must be identical for each product and step (cancellation period, accounting period, subscription interval).
Product contracts are required to create a subscription. These can be created either before or during the offer creation process.

Note: A price sheet is required to create a product contract within the offer creation, which must have already been created before the offer creation.
A time-based subscription can also be used as a multi-user offer.
