Managing your Salesforce Revenue Cloud assets can often feel cumbersome, especially when it comes to the processes of amending, renewing, or canceling subscriptions. Fortunately, Salesforce provides a powerful prebuilt tool—the Amend, Renew, and Cancel Assets Flow (or RC Flow)—designed to simplify these tasks significantly.
The RC Flow automates backend processes for sales representatives and operations teams when changes are needed for customer subscriptions or products. This flow is launched via the amend, renew, or cancel buttons on the Managed Assets page within the account, thereby acting as a central hub for all active assets. By automating the creation of new quotes or orders that reflect the desired changes, users can streamline their workflow significantly.
To access this flow:
Selecting this template brings up the flow, allowing users to either customize the process or create entirely new workflows using specific flow elements tailored to their needs.
The RC Flow consists of a set of elements that guide users through the amendment, renewal, or cancellation processes:
For renewals and amendments, specific permission sets such as amend assets, renew assets, and cancel assets are required. Additionally, API permissions, like Initiate Amendment API and Initiate Renewal API, allow the necessary actions to take place.
The true potential of the RC Flow lies in its customizability. By cloning the default flow and adding unique business logic through standard flow elements, companies can tailor the flow to better fit their operational requirements. This flexibility ensures that the asset lifecycle management process is seamless and efficient.
Understanding the Amend, Renew, and Cancel Assets Flow is essential for optimizing your organization’s revenue operations within Salesforce Revenue Cloud. By taking advantage of this prebuilt functionality and customizing it to your needs, you can dramatically enhance your asset management processes.

From my initial call with Spencer through project implementation with John and Evan, my experience with the SOLVD team was excellent. They were quick to understand our business needs, clear when explaining the reasoning behind proposed solutions, transparent when reporting on progress and timeline, and all around enjoyable to work with. Would highly recommend and looking forward to continue working with them in the future!
SOLVD was very straight forward with everything needed to complete the project. No surprises, no issues, and cost was aligned with the estimate. They made implementation easy and quick.
As a rule, I'm pretty stingy with my recommendations. So it's a pleasure for me to recommend Solvd as a top-flight Salesforce consultancy. Solvd recently led our company's conversion to the Lightning interface and did it on time, on budget and made it easy for me and my team. I know I'll use their services again, and am confident they can do the same for you.
