Is it possible to transfer Azure RIs and Savings Plans from a direct EA to a CSP Agreement
Hello Everyone,
Could you please confirm if RI can move with direct EA subscription to CSP via modern billing transfer option or is there any blocker
Open article:-
Azure Reserved Instances will move with a subscription to the future partner. After a transfer of upfront paid Reservations, the customer won't be able to cancel or exchange those reservations. If a transferred RI is on monthly payment plan, the next monthly charge would appear on the destination partner's reconciliation file, rather than a prorated amount. The previous monthly charge (in full monthly rate) would appear on the source partner's reconciliation file.
Changes to CSP partner benefits for Azure reservations now implemented
