From this release, the authorization link field in the Microsoft Cloud Services settings page is deprecated. You no longer need to define the authorization link since it will be generated automatically via an API call to Microsoft. It will contain the reseller's MPN ID for the connection between the end customer, the reseller, and you (the distributor).

Schedule Licenses Cancellations on Subscription Renewal

Your customers can now schedule cancellation of subscription licenses to be executed on the renewal of the subscription. Your customers now have two options available for canceling subscription licenses.

• Immediate cancellation. This cancellation option is essentially the immediate cancellation execution of a subscription and/or an add-on. This is what was supported until this version.

• “End of the current Billing Period“ cancellation. This cancellation option is essentially a form of a scheduled cancellation that will be actualized at the end of the current billing period.

This feature completes the new cancellation policies we introduced in release 3.28.16 Release. For more details, please check Subscriptions Cancellations.

Schedule Subscription Quantity Changes on Renewal

From the BSS portal, your operations team can now change the quantity of a subscription (either to increase or reduce it) for the end of the current billing cycle. By selecting the option “End of Billing Period” as the effective date for the change, our system will update the subscription quantity on the next renewal.
