Annual to Triennial - new end date?
- Aug 27, 2024
Dear all,
in April 2024 we switched a yearly subscription for Dynamics Sales Enterprise to a triennial subscription and I can confirm that there were pro-rated credits for the yearly subscription and charges for the triennial subscription as Nick described in his post. The new expiry date is exactly 3 years after you have activated the triennial subscription.
Kind regards
Christine
Very much interested in this answer!
Indeed, learn documentation says it's possible, but doesn't answer what will happen with the term itself after the change: Manage term duration and billing frequency - Partner Center | Microsoft Learn
If I can give my assumption on the matter: changing an annual subscription (Jan 1 2024 - Dec 31 2024) in August to a triannual term, I would assume it would extend it's running term to Dec 31 2026.
Original annual commitment subscription due to renew 20th February 2025.
Changed to triennial commitment on 20th August 2024.
New renew date is 20th August 2027.
In conclusion, it starts a completely new full triennial term from the date of change.
The subscription ID does not change.
Expect there will be pro-rated credits/charges in the billing as a result.

Nick_Beacroft thank you very much! I thought I remembered it to be like this but wasn’t sure and didn’t find any infos. 🙏🏼 (also didn‘t find the access/tenant for our sandbox 🫣)
- MartijnElfersAug 20, 2024Steel ContributorThat's pretty awesome news! Fully new term and a full 3-year price protection again.
Interested how the pro-rate charges will look like next billing. - axperience_graAug 20, 2024Iron ContributorMaybe someone „official“ from Microsoft could answer the billing/credit part?
