Microsoft 365 admin center: New self-service purchase and trial settings [MC853238]

Message ID:  MC853238

Before this rollout, Global admins use the Microsoft MSCommerce PowerShell to manage self-service trials and purchases by users. After this rollout, the Microsoft 365 admin center will have new settings for Global admins to manage user actions for eligible products with self-service trials and purchases. The MSCommerce PowerShell option will continue to be available.

[When this will happen:]

General Availability (Worldwide): We will begin rolling out mid-September 2024 and expect to complete by late September 2024.

[How this will affect your organization:]

Global admins can access the new settings in the Microsoft 365 admin center at Settings > Org Settings > Self-service trials and purchases (Edit Self-Service trials and purchases):

An example of the new options for managing self-service trials and purchases (for Microsoft Planner):

This new setting is on by default and accessible to all Microsoft 365 Global admins. As future self-service options are launched by products, they will be available to manage in this new setting.

[What you need to do to prepare:]

This rollout will happen automatically by the specified dates with no admin action required before the rollout. You may want to notify your users about this change and update any relevant documentation.
