Subscription Cancel Effective Date Check

Check that a cancelled subscription stayed active until its documented effective date. Preparation only, not an account action.

What to provide

Cancellation request date, cancel-at-period-end setting and the access end date.

How it works

1. Record the cancellation request date.
2. Record whether cancel-at-period-end was set.
3. Compare the access end date to the period end.
4. Return the date check without changing the subscription.

The output

subscription | cancelled_at | period_end | access_ended | days_early | violation

Worked fictional example

Fictional subscription was cancelled October 20 with cancel-at-period-end set and a period end of November 1: access ended October 20, 12 days early, so the termination is flagged.

Checks and limits

Keep original values, source IDs and version dates. Unknown facts stay held. Use qualified review for hiring, legal and accounting conclusions. No send, share, sign-in, scheduling, ledger change or payment. Fictional contract review is not a live account compatibility test.
