# Change an Azure reservation directory between tenants

This article helps reservation owners change a reservation order's directory from one Azure Active Directory tenant (directory) to another. When you change a reservation order's directory, it removes any Azure RBAC access to the reservation order and dependent reservations. Only you will have access after the change. Changing the directory doesn't change billing ownership for the reservation order. The directory is changed for the parent reservation order and dependent reservations.

## Update reservation scope
39
+
40
+
After the reservation moves the new tenant, you can change the reservation target scope to a *shared* or *management group scope*. For more information about changing the scope, see [Change the reservation scope](manage-reserved-vm-instance.md#change-the-reservation-scope). The following example explains how changing the scope might work.
41
+
42
+
Currently, a reservation covers subscriptions A1 and A2. The reservation scope is set to either a shared scope or a management group scope.
43
+
44
+
| Initial reservation location | Final reservation location |
45
+
| --- | ---|
46
+
| Tenant A | Tenant B |
47
+
| Subscription A-1 | Subscription B-1 |
48
+
| Subscription A-2 | Subscription B-2 |
49
+
50
+
Assume that the reservation is set to a shared scope. When subscriptions B1 and B2 are under the same billing profile (for MCA) or enrollment (for EA), then B1 and B2 already receive the reservation benefit. Changing the tenant doesn’t change the scope. In this situation, you don’t have to change the scope after you change the reservation tenant.
51
+
52
+
Assume that the reservation is set to a management group scope. After you change the reservation tenant, you need to change the reservation’s scope to a management group scope that targets subscriptions B1 and B2.
