Microsoft Announces Migration of Legacy CSP Commercial Subscriptions to New Commerce in 2024

September 26, 2023 Microsoft Partner News

At Qloud Blog, we are committed to keeping our readers updated on the latest developments in the world of cloud computing. Today, we bring you important news from Microsoft regarding the migration of Cloud Solution Provider (CSP) commercial legacy seat-based subscriptions to new commerce.

Microsoft has announced that it will begin migrating all CSP commercial subscriptions that remain in the legacy system to new commerce in January 2024. This migration includes CSP commercial offers being used by Government entities worldwide. The migration will occur on the date of subscription renewal, starting with all subscriptions set to renew in January 2024 and continuing throughout the 2024 calendar year.

Microsoft has assured that all legacy subscriptions migrated to new commerce will be set to an annual term with the same billing plan and seat counts that the customers had in the legacy system. Partners will have seven days after migration is complete to change the subscription term, quantity or cancel the subscription if necessary.

Microsoft strongly recommends that partners manage their customers' migrations now to ensure the customer has the terms that best suit their business needs. If customers want monthly subscription terms, partners should migrate them before the legacy subscriptions reach the end of term in 2024.

Most Microsoft 365, Office 365, Security and Dynamics 365 commercial offers are currently available in new commerce. Partners can find the current list of CSP legacy offers available for new commerce migration in the NCE Mapping tab of the legacy Offer Matrix document, which is in the Partner Center pricing workspace.

To support partners with their migration effort, Microsoft is running CSP Technical Training and CSP Spotlight calls in the months of October, November, and December. These learning sessions give partners the opportunity to learn about migration details from Microsoft experts.

In other news, Microsoft had previously announced that CSP legacy Public Sector offers for Government Community Cloud, education and nonprofit would be available in CSP new commerce in November 2023. However, based on feedback from partners, Microsoft has decided to launch Public Sector offers in new commerce and begin Microsoft-led migrations of Public Sector offers in calendar year 2024 to avoid business disruption for partners.

We encourage all partners to review the Legacy Offer Matrix document in Partner Center to determine if your customer subscriptions are available for migration. Take action before January 2024 to migrate your customers' commercial legacy CSP subscriptions to new commerce.
