Find answers to the frequently asked questions about the Microsoft Azure Consumption Commitment (MACC) in the Microsoft Azure Marketplace.
What marketplace purchases contribute to my organization's Microsoft Azure Consumption Commitment (MACC) and when will I see the decrement?
All Azure benefit eligible offers purchased through Azure Marketplace and during the MACC coverage period contribute 100% of the pretax purchase amount toward the MACC. Contribution to the commitment occurs at the time when Microsoft issues the invoice. See Find benefit-eligible offers to learn how to find Azure benefit-eligible solutions.
Can a marketplace purchase done prior to the Azure Consumption Commitment's effective date apply retroactively?
No, marketplace purchases or spend prior to the MACC's effective date don't contribute to the commitment. Renewals of Azure benefit eligible solutions that occur after the MACC effective date contributes to the commitment. For example, if an Azure benefit eligible solution bills monthly, then billing for the months following the effective date contributes to the MACC.
How can I see which marketplace purchases have contributed to my organization's Microsoft Azure Consumption Commitment (MACC)?
See Track your Microsoft Azure Consumption Commitment (MACC) to learn how to view progress toward your organization's MACC in the Azure portal.
Will a purchase of an Azure benefit eligible solution from the marketplace decrement an Azure Prepayment that I purchased during my Microsoft Azure Consumption Commitment (MACC) term?
Azure prepayment or Azure monetary commitment can't be used against purchases of Azure benefit eligible solutions sold by partners.
