Add subscription
Use this page to request a new Microsoft subscription in a tenant. It requires the Manage level or Full access. Open it with Add subscription on a tenant card on the Microsoft page. The page subtitle names the tenant the subscription is added to.
Loading the available products can take several minutes.
To avoid loading the same data again and again, the portal keeps loaded data on your computer for 5 minutes. When cached data is shown, a line "Showing cached data, loaded ..." appears at the top of the page; select Refresh in that line to load fresh data.
Choose a product
In one card, select the kind of product:
- Online services
- Software subscriptions
- Perpetual software
Then search by name or product ID, and move between pages of the list. Each product has a Configure button.
Configure and send
Configure replaces the product row with a form:
- Plan: the plan of the product.
- Term: choose a term. If the plan has only one, it is shown with the note "Only term available for this plan." Perpetual software has no term.
- Quantity: the number of licences, within the limits of the plan.
Select Send create request to send the request to Nodefusion. The subscription is not created immediately; it is created after Nodefusion processes the request. Select Close to put the product row back without sending.
If a product cannot be ordered in the chosen kind, the form shows a message starting with "Microsoft error", for example that the software has no subscription plan, or is not perpetual. The message tells you which kind to check instead.
A new subscription appears on the Microsoft page after it is processed, which can take up to 1 hour.
Notifications
After you send a request, a message tells you that the creation request was submitted. The subscription is not created yet: Nodefusion handles the request first, and the subscription appears in the list afterwards. If sending fails, an error message is shown and the form stays open.
