Excerpt

Enforcement of Microsoft Cloud Agreement from 22nd of March

March 22, 2019 is the effective date for the Microsoft Cloud Agreement (MCA) customer confirmation acceptance. Beginning March 22, 2019, when a CSP partner initiates a transaction for a new or existing customer using the Partner Center API, Microsoft’s systems will automatically check if the customer confirmation information is present. If it is not present, the transaction will not be able to be completed.

In this release we removed from the MCA pop-up form the "skip" option, from both BSS and Storefront, for your resellers and your customers to be forced to confirm the acceptance of MCA before placing their order.

How this will be enforced in your system?

  • For the customers that are operated in Azure EU deployment, the 3.24.8 release will be applied on 21sth of March at 22:00 GMT.
  • For the customers that are operated in Azure US deployment, the 3.2.48 release will be applied on 22nd of March at 02:00 AM EST .
  • The customers that are having on-premise deployment must inform their IT teams to upgrade to 3.24.8 as soon as possible.

  2. BSS Ordering wizard. Implementation of an ordering wizard, similar to the one that is available in Storefront, for the account manager to be able to place order for an Azure Reservation from the "Buy a Reservation" action that will be available in the details page of an Azure subscription.
