What This Section Covers
A Purchase Activity is the Salesforce record fusionCore creates when an Order is activated. It is the lasting record of what a customer bought, and for subscriptions it drives the whole lifecycle — renewals, cancellations, and the membership details that appear on the Account and Contact. The Purchase Activity object isFCORE_PAY__Purchase_Activity__c. fusionCore uses a record’s Record Type to tell two kinds apart:
- A subscription Purchase Activity has Record Type
FC_Subscriptionand is linked to aSubscription_Plan__c. It carries start, end, and renewal fields. - A miscellaneous Purchase Activity records a non-subscription purchase. It has no renewal or subscription fields.
A Purchase Activity is created automatically when you activate an Order — by taking a payment or by creating an invoice. You do not create one by hand. Only products with Purchase Activity Creation set to True generate a Purchase Activity.
