Prerequisites

Before starting this tutorial, make sure you have the following:

• Your Microsoft tenant name.

• A Marketplace licensee in the active state or permission to create a new licensee (if you don't want to use an existing licensee). You'll need to select the licensee when you are creating the agreement.

Implementation

1

Launch the purchase wizard

Navigate to the Products page. Then, select Microsoft 365 Business, Enterprise & Apps - Commercial from the available products.

On the details page, select Buy now in the upper right to start the purchase wizard.

Complete the steps in the purchase wizard

1. In the Create agreement step, select Create agreement to start creating your new agreement.

2. In the Select licensee step, choose if you want to use an existing licensee or create a new one. In this tutorial, we'll select an existing licensee. You can add a new licensee by selecting Add licensee. See Create Licensees for instructions.
3. In the Create agreement step, select Connect existing cloud account to connect your existing tenant. Then, select Next. Note that if you choose this option, the global administrator of your Microsoft account will need to accept the relationship request.

4. In the Microsoft details step, enter the details for your Microsoft account:

   1. Enter the name of your existing tenant.

   2. Fill out the contact form. You'll need to provide the first and last name, email address, and phone number of the person who will manage your account.

   3. Select Next. The platform will validate your Microsoft tenant details. If no tenant is found, a message is displayed. You'll need to fix the error to proceed.

5. In the Special qualifications step, select the checkbox if your organization is a state-owned entity. Otherwise, leave it clear. A company is classified as state-owned if it is either controlled by the government or performs functions that the government considers its own.
6. In the Support contacts step, enter the contact details of your support administrator and choose your preferred support language. Select Next.

7. In the Items step, do the following:

   1. Choose the items you want to order and then select Add items. You can select multiple items. When the items are added, the Select items section is displayed.

   2. Review and adjust the license quantity as required.

   3. If applicable, read the offer attestation. The offer attestation is only displayed for Windows 365 Business with the Windows Hybrid Benefit.
   4. Select Next.

8. In the Details step, provide reference details, like additional IDs or notes, and select Next.

9. In the Review order step, read the terms and conditions and the privacy statement. When done, select Place order.

10. In the Summary step, select View details to go to the order details page; otherwise, select Close to exit the wizard.

Next steps

Once you have placed your order, we'll verify the order details, including the Microsoft tenant ID, and create your new subscription under your existing tenant. If there are issues with your order, the order details page will provide information about the problem and any actions you may need to take.
