## Amendment status

Any amendments for Azure customers need to go through their partner or Microsoft account team and get processed through the regional operations center. If you think an amendment wasn't processed, check with your partner, software advisor, or Microsoft account team.

## Enrollment provisioning status

The start date of a new monetary commitment is defined by the date that the regional operations center processed it. Since monetary commitment orders via the Azure EA portal are processed in the UTC time zone, you may experience some delay if your monetary commitment purchase order was processed in a different region. The coverage start date on the purchase order at https://www.explore.ms shows the start of the monetary commitment. The coverage start date is when the monetary commitment appears in the Azure EA portal.

You can order Standard or Pro-Direct support by purchasing support-specific SKUs. The order is similar to a EA Azure Monetary SKU purchase order. For example, 6QK-00001. Support SKU numbers are W6T-00002 (Pro-Direct) and W6T-00003 (Standard). Check the current support offers before you purchase support SKUs.

The enrollment must have at least one active account for the support offer to be provisioned.

## Azure Compute Pre-Purchase Plan (CPP)
158-
159-
The Azure Compute Pre-Purchase Plan (CPP - previously known as the Azure Compute Promo) is an offer that gives customers with steady state, predictable workloads an opportunity to get computing at a significant discount by pre-purchasing Azure compute for 12 months. It is available for EA and visible in the EA Portal.
160-
161-
If you have ordered a CPP SKU, it is for a specific type of machine in a specific data center. As this feature stands today we do not provide a list of all of the CPP purchases a customer has made so there is no list of awaiting credits; however, when you do configure the purchased machine types in the data center where they were purchased, you will see the monthly allocation in the Usage Summary report on the EA Portal.
162-
163-
The pre-purchased amount will show up as a credit in the "Included Units" column and usage against it will result in no usage charges until the "Included Units" are consumed. Once they are consumed, additional usage will be at the negotiated rates in the normal EA customer price sheet.
164-
165-
The way the credits are purchased are based on number of machines of a class per month. For example: if you purchased 70 A2 VMs per year in US East 2, you would not quite see that in the EA portal in the same way you purchased it.
166-
167-
Monthly machines are calculated as running 744 hours per month. Converting that to hours would be 70 times 744 or 52,080 purchased hours of A2 VMs per month. Since in the EA Portal Usage Summary A2 VMs are reported in 100-Hours increments what you would see is a credit of 520.8 (52,080/100) "Included Units" per month and you would see the consumed units so far in the month. The usage charges should show as zero until the monthly consumed units exceed the monthly included units.
168-
169-
Different machine types use different units of measure so for example D3 and D4 VMs use a 10-Hours unit of measure in our Usage Summary report so a purchase of 70 of those would show up a 5208 included units per month (52,080/10).
170-

In general, the formula below will provide you the number of VMs purchased based on their units of measurement:
