Process overview: Create a subscription

Creating a subscription using the Subskribe API involves the following steps:

1. Create an order. When a customer wants to purchase a product offering, use the Create order endpoint to create a new order containing a quote for internal review. You can include information like pricing details, subscription terms, billing frequency and more in the order. This step results in an order created in the DRAFT status.
2. Update the order to make amendments. If you need to change order details, use the Update order details endpoint to make the updates.
3. Submit and execute the order. Next, submit the order for internal review. Call the Update order status endpoint to update the order status to SUBMITTED. This triggers pre-configured approval workflows. Once all required approvals are given, the order status is automatically updated to APPROVED. Finally, call the Update order status endpoint to update the order status to EXECUTED.
