## Common causes

- You're trying to update a transaction where the `origin` is `subscription_payment_method_change`. Only `customer_id`, `address_id`, or `business_id` can be changed.

## Common solutions

- Payment method change transactions are zero-value transactions created by Paddle for updating a payment method against a subscription. Update the related subscription or bill for one-time charges to bill items to a subscription.
- To update the address for a payment method, remove fields other than `customer_id`, `address_id`, or `business_id` from your request.
