Manage Accounts Panel — Transfer Subscriptions

The EA Portal now can transfer individual subscriptions from one account owner to another. So if Account A has three subscriptions, the Enterprise Admin could transfer one to Account B, one to Account C and one to Account D.

Manage Accounts Panel — Transfer Subscriptions

Whether doing an ownership change (transferring all subscriptions) or individual subscription transfers, you will first have to deselect the Active filter to show subscriptions in non-active statuses to see the transfer status. You will also notice that the subscription is in Active Transferring position until the transfer is completed and, at that point, will show as Transferred Out. The same GUID will now show as active in the destination account, with the start date being the transfer date. You can see that in the second image below with the GUID moving from billtest145078 to billtest501874

Subscription Setup Methodology

Only the Account Owner can create Subscriptions. Subscriptions may have any combination of services associated with them. Creating different Subscriptions for each environment of your applications and assigning different roles to each subscription can help control access to development projects and environments within your organization.

Manage Subscriptions panel

This view allows you to view or refresh all subscriptions available to you, and if you are an account owner, add new subscriptions. If you are both an Enterprise Admin and Account Owner, you will have to click on “View Managed Subscriptions” to see subscriptions owned by others. The default view is only own subscriptions.

Adding a New Subscription

When you add a new subscription to your enterprise portal enrollment, you will default to the Microsoft Azure Enterprise offer to ensure no billing outside of your Microsoft Azure Amendment happens.

When you add your first subscription to an account, you will be asked to provide your contact information. After filling in the required fields for the first subscription, subsequent additions will show only an agreement to the term and a purchase button.

When finished providing the information, click the Sign-up button.
Each new subscription will default to the name Microsoft Azure Enterprise. Therefore, it is best to rename each to something unique to identify each subscription.
