[Beta] Updated Sync for Limio Add Ons, Offers and Products from Zuora Product Catalog

⚠️ Please note this feature is in beta. Please raise a support ticket at before activating this feature.

Limio has an updated sync that can allow to create bidirectional sync between Zuora and Limio.

Step 1: Configure Zuora custom fields

Go to Billing > Manage Custom Fields, then:

• On Product object, create a custom field:

  • Name: “Limio Path”

  • API Name: LimioPath__c

  • Field Type: “Text”

  • Max Length: 255

• On Product Rate Plan object, create a custom field:

  • Name: “Limio Path”

  • API Name: LimioPath__c

  • Field Type: “Text”

  • Max Length: 255

• (Optional) If you would like your Product Rate Plan to be synced into Limio Catalog as an Add On rather than Offer, on the Product Rate Plan, create a custom field:

  • Name: “Limio Type”

  • API Name: LimioType__c

  • Field Type: “Text”

  • Max Length: 255

  • On the relevant Product Rate Plan, set the value to "add_on". If this field is not set up, an Offer will be created by default.

This will:

1. Lookup the list of new Products currently stored in Zuora, save them for use in Limio Products, create a Limio Product for each Zuora Product.

2. Lookup the the list of new Rate Plans for each Product, save them for use in Limio Offers, and create a Limio Offer or Add-On for each Zuora Rate Plan

3. Update any already existing Products and Rate Plans to the corresponding Limio Products and Limio Offers or Add Ons.

During the sync, each Zuora Product and Rate Plan will be updated with a Limio Path in a new LimioPath__c Custom Field in Zuora if this field has been set up.

This will allow your Limio and Zuora Catalogs to stay in sync after the initial sync.
