Hello,

You also sent an email via the "contact us" form. Sorry the answer took more than usual since it mixed questions between HikaSerial and HikaShop.

Subscriptions and Serials are not related/linked and like that I don't see the need of that.
Can you please explain us why you need that ?

The subscription already have its own workflow, can be renewed, can perform actions when activate and expire.

Hello,

To clarify the problem. I have an application with a 1 year license and I want to allow the user to renew without creating a new serial key.

Licensing of the application is done through the web API.
Subscriptions would be a great option if only it had the option to change the validity_end in the Serial Hikashop module in that case user can expend licence(serial) every year without change serial.

Correct?

greetings,

Hello,

Since you want to perform a renewal, you need to use the Subscription system, not the serial one.
I don't know what you means by "Licensing of the application is done through the web API", but yes, "consume" and "check" are not compatible with the subscriptions.
Subscriptions like Serials have the "extra data" which allows to store some "external" information into the object ; like the end of validity for the serial (used by some plugins), etc.

I don't understand your last sentence, which mix subscription with a serial concept ; thus I don't see what you want to achieve.
But the subscription is the feature that you want to use ; now you need to give us details regarding your (missing) needs so we can see how we can help.
