Azure sponsorship and cost management challenge
I am listening for years that Azure Sponsorship type of Azure subscriptions will get Azure Cost Management. This includes the view of prices inside portal.azure.com, managing budgets, checking each individual resources etc.
Current / old portal - https://www.microsoftazuresponsorships.com/Usage , does not show costs per each resource (name), instead only per resources type. Not possible to set budgets, alerts, limits, and other things.
So, again, when does Microsoft plans to upgrade Azure sponsorships to use Cost Management?
Any reference (roadmap) link on this please?
Hrvoje Kusulja This is the teams response:
We are currently transitioning customers to a newer Sponsorship experience where Azure Sponsorship credits and usage can be viewed directly in Cost Management.
As a quick way to check which experience you are currently using, please visit microsoftazuresponsorships.com/usage. If your usage is only visible there, you are likely using the previous Sponsorship platform.
In the newer Sponsorship experience, you can view Sponsorship credit usage directly in Cost Management by navigating to Billing Profiles and then Payment Methods. This experience also enables access to additional Cost Management capabilities and reporting features.
If you are currently using the previous Sponsorship platform, access to the newer experience typically occurs when a new Sponsorship is provisioned or redeemed.
