When to use Add Installed Item

Use Add Installed Items to add traceable Physical Goods to a Subscription that may be required for its activation, such as Decoders and Smartcards. 
For example, a customer subscribed to an internet Service will need a modem in order to receive that Service. 

View Subscription Definitions to learn how to set up Installed Item validations and restrictions. The System does not impose any Installed Item validations or restrictions on creating and activating a Subscription (by default).

The most frequently used Installed Items are:

  1. Smartcard
  2. Set-Top Box (Decoder)
  3. Modem

There are two occasions that require the addition of Installed Items:

  1. When creating a new Subscription.
  2. When adding to an existing Subscription, items that are not yet added.

View the Information Table below for information related to the Scheduling, Preview Rating and Classification of the Subscription Action.  Check the Validations & Restrictions Table  for a list of available Actions, including each Action's related validations, restrictions and a description of its system process.
View 'Using Subscription Action Modal' available in Managing Subscriptions for more information on executing the Action.
