Hi, We'd like to format dates like in our <Event.Date> email templates like we can in our invoice templates (https://knowledgecenter.zuora.com/CB_Billing/IA_Invoices/Creating_a_Custom_Invoice_Template/B_Define_the_Format_for_Date_and_Number_Fields). The current set up doesn't allow us to be flexible with how we surface dates. Thanks, Charles

It would be useful to be able to import/export email templates and communication profiles. Some specific use cases:
1, Export a communication profile, edit externally and import back in. This would be useful if creating or maintaining multiple communication profiles across Zuora instances or within a single instance if several communication profiles are used for different classes of customer, etc. Note that the ability to clone an existing communication profile to create another would at least fulfill this partially within a single Zuora instance.
2. Export email templates, edit externally and import back in, This could be between instances of Zuora (sandbox to prod, prod to prod2, etc.) or between different company instances (where an enterprise customer may have multiple Zuora instances for different units or subsidiaries).

We have a lot of customers request that their payment processed emails be sent to more than one person. For example, the doctor wants to monitor the activity on the account, but their office manager also needs the receipts for bookkeeping. The emails do not go out to the secondary email on file, only the primary.
I opened a ticket to see if we were missing something, and I was informed that we would have to create a new customer profile for every single customer that requests this. We would then have to enter the email addresses within that profile, then go to the actual customer account, and choose that profile that I created for that customer under billing and payment settings. That is a lot of unnecessary steps, in my opinion. There should be an option on the customer account to send these emails to multiple recipients. If we were to create a new profile for every customer, that's a lot of manual work for us, and we would then have to be updating the profiles all the time because customers change the emails on the account frequently. I just hope there will soon be an efficient way to do this. We have decided to continue to tell our customers there is no way to send them to more than one email, just because the process to add more emails to these notifications is far too time consuming.
Thanks.

Situation: I have two Ultimate Parent Accounts each with a single child account associated. Both of the child accounts should have been associated with one-single Ultimate Parent, but were created individually, thus creating two identical Ultimate Parent accounts. One of the child accounts needs moved to a single, primary Ultimate Parent account, and the extra Ultimate Parent account needs deleted after the child account is moved to the primary Ultimate Parent. Current Resolution Process: Update the Child accounts' Ultimate Parent to the primary Ultimate Parent chosen Cancel the invoice generated on the extra Ultimate Parent account that was generated by the subscription associated with the child account Transfer the Subscription Invoice Owner to the new primary Ultimate Parent Cancel/delete the extra Ultimate Parent account Ideal Process: Have a feature on Customer Accounts to "Transfer Customer Account" This feature would complete the entire process stated above automatically.

It would be nice if when you go into the customer accounts note section if it automatically enlarged when you go to enter notes and also date and user stamped the note automatically.

Hello,
I just read that only some months ago (August 2015) you offered the possibility to send notifications as HTML e-mails.
That is great, but we need to go one step further here:
The e-mail should be sent as both, HTML and text, this would prevent that the e-mail doesn´t reach its destination.
It is important that invoices are reaching the customer, but a professional experience is also important.
Thanks for taking this into consideration.
It is possible to choose between text und HTML emails, but is there also an option to use "multipart" for the e-mails? (screenshot "mail_template_zuora.png")
This would prevent that the e-mail doesn´t reach its destination.

It's great that Zuora offers custom fields in the product catalog. This is useful for creating custom settings for individual products, for example to add a "Campaign" picklist to products (e.g. a product rate plan could be created by marketing just for the Christmas period).
However, custom fields are not "inherited" or copied when the product catalog (rate plans, charges) is used to create a subscription or quote. Other standard fields are copied by default. This then prevents to do a query or to fetch lists based on these custom fields (e.g. which subscriptions have been set up with Campaign = "Christmas").
Zuora should copy custom fields from the product rate plan/charge when a new quote or subscription rate plans or rate plan charges are created just like any other fields are copied. The behavior could be conditional, so if the custom field wasn't manually created on both the product and the quote/subscription rate plan/charges, it is not copied.

Would be helpful to be able to preview an email template using actual data, similar to the functionality that exists when adding a new invoice template. Mostly struggling with the aesthetics as it is hard to see past the angle brackets and merge fields. Also difficult to know how something like <MergeTable.PastDueInvoice> will display.

Hello!
My client realised the number of contacts is limited to 100 per account. This may seem a lot already, but here's why we would want to increase it.
The context if B2B... the client sells licenses to a reseller... the reseller is our account in Zuora.
Our client want to keep track of whom these licenses are sold to... to have a direct access to their users, rather that just with the reseller.
The idea is that for each installation, the reseller will record the contact details of the end-user. This information needs to be recorded in Zuora as there's no other system in the picture where this can be stored. Contact seems to be the ideal candidate... but the limit of 100 will quickly be reached.
The idea is to increase it. Given the fact that there's not API to retrieve the whole list of contacts for an account, we believe that impact on perf, or even storage (of course not all accounts will have that many contacts, only a few will reach a few 1000s of contacts) should be limited.
Proposal: increase the limit align it with the max number of subscription per account (3000 by default).

If I search for account, I get a list that has links for each account to view or delete. Why can't I edit? Ditto for all other search results.

When we're setting up a new email notification after a payment, it would be great to know the reason for the payment (renewal, new customer, upgrade, etc). In this way, we could send more specific messages when we thank a customer for their payment, i.e. Thank you for your renewal. This information is on the amendments that generated the invoice and the payment, but it's not available when setting up a notification.

The ability to select a given date's exchange rates, and have all other currency prices update based on that date's exchange rates vs. home currency is a feature requested by a current client. THey will have a number of rate plans, and every so often will update the product catalog based on shift in FX prices (ie due to volatility), so want to be able to do this in mass vs. having to go through the UI for every RPC, calculting the price based on FX rate, and inputting it

Reference Number: DE7722

Communication Profile column added to CustomerAccount.csv so that updates to Communication Profile can be automated. Then allow the CSV file to be uploaded using import feature within customer accounts section.

Feature Request: Need the Account Number in a payment notification email Status: under evaluation Reference Number: DE8679 Business Need: The reason for Account Number is that account name is not guaranteed to be unique. The use case - a customer will often call a support rep after receiving a payment failure notification. The payment failure notification email only allows Account.ID, which is WAY TOO LONG to reference over the phone, Account Name, which is not unique ("John Smith" can be problematic, or reps can misspell the customer name), etc. The payment notification email also allows the use BillToContact.WorkEmail, which could be used to reference an account, but QCOM uses the BillToContact.PersonalEmail field. Customer needs a way to easily and uniquely reference their account from the payment notification email, and the best means is the Account Number.

Currently, the country of Curacao in Zuora is spelled without an accent on the second 'c'. In NetSuite, there is an accent. This creates an integration error every time the integration is run - which might mask other errors. Please either provide the ability to setup a "user defined" country or coordinate the literal translations with NetSuite.

Zuora currently supports notification on upcoming renewals (in the next 90 days). The request is to have the similar capability for evergreen subscriptions, so that we notify the customers on their upcoming recurring charges. This applies mainly for annual/quarterly evergreen subscriptions.
