SKUs not enabled for migration to NCE but need to be manually migrated

Hi 214820 

Thank you for moving your post to the NCE community! 

Azure Active Directory Premium P1 is currently on the list of SKUs "enabled for migration but need to be manually migrated". Can you explain what this means? 

Migrate subscriptions to new commerce - Partner Center | Microsoft Learn

As stated on the documentation that you provided, new commerce license-based product SKUs were made generally available on January 10th, 2022. Since then, various migration capabilities have been enabled to enable partners to make the transition more easily from tradition license-based (legacy) to new commerce product skus.

Therefore, not all offers and subscriptions are eligible for migration at this time. The link that you provided includes a table of subscriptions and another table of some legacy offers that are not supported by migration:

Also, it says that this is just a sample of the popular products that are enabled but need manual migration.  How do we tell if other SKUs not listed here need to be manually migrated?

Also mentioned in the documentation, Partners can get details about which legacy offers map to the new commerce product SKUs by reviewing the NCE Mapping tab in the new commerce Offer Matrix:

Right now, in the case of AAD Premium P1, the migration tool looks like it's enabled - what happens if we try to proceed using the migration tool? Will there be an error message indicating that a new subscription needs to be purchased first and manually migrated?

As mentioned in the documentation, migration requests will fail if migration is not supported:
