# Request Settlement Date

> Jane wants to settle earlier than the remaining installment plan.

## Real-World Example

Jane wants to settle earlier than the remaining installment plan. She requests a settlement date, and the portal should update the selected schedule transaction only when the request is valid for the active plan.

## How It Should Work

* It should allow settlement-date requests only for active plans and eligible transactions.
* It should keep the consumer informed about the resulting schedule change.
* It should update external calendar events when the date changes.

## How It Should Not Work

* It should not apply settlement-date changes to the wrong account.
* It should not bypass payment-plan constraints.
* It should not leave old calendar dates active after the request succeeds.

## Developer Notes

* This is an active plan action, not a separate new offer.
* Calendar updates should be queued after the schedule change.
