Transitioning From Business Central Essentials To Premium in NCE

(3) ShareShare

Posted on by 5

It doesn't appear there is an upgrade path in NCE for BCE to BCP.  Which means that if a client is a few months into a subscription and determine they need BCP, they still would have to pay for the rest of the year for BCE.  This issue has already come up twice with the partners I work with, so I'm hoping someone at Microsoft will address this issue.  If anyone has any guidance on this issue it would be very much appreciated.

I have the same question (0)

    Your CSP partner should be able to raise this issue with Microsoft and see if they can find a solution for it.

    My guess is that there is a solution as long as you go from Essential to Premium because that is an upgrade.

    A downgrade from BCP to BCE could be more troublesome i guess.

    And i am of course not speaking on behalf of Microsoft but normally a partner is able to work on a solution for cases like this together with MS,
