This section of the onboarding guide describes the steps you follow to migrate from an EA to an MCA. Although the steps in this section are like those in the previous [New MCA customer](#new-mca-customer) section, there are important differences called out throughout this section.

### Changes after migration
212+
213+
- Historical data – It isn’t available to account owners or users with the Subscription owner Azure role-based access control (RBAC) role after migration. Access for existing users, groups, or service principals that was assigned using [Azure role-based access control (Azure RBAC)](../../role-based-access-control/overview.md) isn't affected during the transition.
214+
- Reservations - When there's a currency change during or after an enrollment transfer, reservations paid for monthly are cancelled for the source enrollment. Cancellation happens at the time of the next monthly payment for an individual reservation. The cancellation is intentional and only affects monthly reservation purchases. You can repurchase them after migration.
215+
- Savings Plans - If they were purchased in a non-USD currency, they get canceled during migration. You can repurchase them after migration.
216+
- API's – If used, you need to migrate to using replacement APIs. For more information, see [Migrate from Enterprise Agreement to Microsoft Customer Agreement APIs](../costs/migrate-cost-management-api.md).
217+
- Automatic purchases - If used under your old EA enrollment, you need to set them up under your new Microsoft Customer Agreement.
218+
- Management groups – Subscriptions in management groups under a Microsoft Customer Agreement aren’t supported in Cost Management yet. Cost Management + Billing is managed with APIs and Azure portal functionality.
219+

Here are some points to consider after migration.
221+
222+
| Consideration | EA | MCA | Notes |
223+
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
224+
| Agreement duration | Expires and gets a new enrollment number at renewal | Doesn’t expire | Billing profile IDs never change |
225+
| Power BI Cost Management connector | Available | Available | The scope differs. There are more attributes in MCA. You can create a combined view using common elements. |
226+
| API | OAuth authentication using an API key | OAuth2 authentication using service principal | More attributes are available in MCA. Common data elements can get used to combine data sets for continuity. |
227+
| Invoicing | One invoice per enrollment number | Can be configured to receive more than one invoice for the same MCA by adding billing profiles | |
228+
229+
| Consideration | EA | MCA |
230+
| --- | --- | --- |
231+
| Billing roles | - Enterprise Admin <br>- Department Admin <br>- Account owner <br>- Service Admin <br>- Notification contact | - Owner <br>- Contributor <br>- Reader for Billing Account <br>- Billing profile <br>- Invoice Section <br>- Invoice manager (for billing profile) <br>- Subscription creator (for invoice section) |
232+
| Multi-tenancy | - Multiple enrollments. <br>- Sharing MACC and ACD across multiple enrollments is complex. | - A single MCA support multiple tenants. <br>- Associate multiple tenants to a billing account in the primary tenant. <br>- Provide access to MCA for users in associated tenants without guesting users into the primary tenant. <br>- MACC and ACD can be shared. |
233+
| Historical charges | Cost data stays under your EA enrollment billing scope. | MCA scope shows cost data starting from the migration date. |
234+
| EA accounts | They’re supported by your EA. | - Not supported in MCA. <br>- The account’s subscriptions belong to the invoice section created for their respective departments. <br>- Account owners become Azure subscription creators. They can create and manage subscriptions for their invoice sections. |
235+
| Marketplace | Marketplace offers can be purchased with an EA | - Marketplace offers can be purchased with an MCA. <br>- Invoices can be configured to show Marketplace purchases on the same invoice with Azure or on a separate invoice. |
