Outcome: Use Subscription Management to solve this user need without losing the current context. User context: A customer sees the exact price and renewal date before changing from 12 seats to 15 seats. Recommended pattern: Subscription Management. Why it fits: Use it for existing customers who need plan, payment, invoice, seat, or cancellation details. Do not use it when: Do not hide the amount or start date of a change. Confirm payment-provider results before changing access. Product requirements: Define the default, loading, empty, error, success, and recovery states. Keep user input. Give clear feedback after every action. Accessibility and resilience: Use semantic HTML, full keyboard access, and visible focus. Make the layout work when zoomed and support reduced motion. Follow the project’s current rules. Do not add a new UI library unless the project already uses it. Acceptance criteria: The main task works with keyboard only and at 320px width. Focus and status changes are announced. Check loading, failure, retry, cancel, and reduced-motion paths. Evidence and limits (evidence boundary): No single official standard controls the whole term. Its meaning may change across teams, platforms, or frameworks. Unknowns to confirm: Product wording, data source, analytics events, supported devices and languages, and platform limits.
