Managing Special Pricing in Seamless Move for NCE Microsoft 365

Before finalizing orders in Seamless Move, Provider/Distributor operators can verify and override the standard catalog prices for NCE Microsoft 365 subscriptions.

Scope and Eligibility

Microsoft Offer Type	Imports Flow	Transfers Flow	Notes
NCE Microsoft 365 (License-Based)	Supported	Supported	Export to Excel is available on the Review Orders Details step in both wizards. Upload via Admin Operations applies prices as deal prices.
NCE Microsoft Azure (Usage-Based)	Not Supported	Not Supported	Azure plans are consumption-based (pay-per-use); no Excel export button or custom pricing overrides exist in either flow.

Workflow Overview

1. Export the pending subscriptions to a signed Excel file from the final step (Review Orders Details) of either the Microsoft NCE Imports or Microsoft NCE Transfers wizard.

2. Populate the recurring reseller and customer unit prices in the Excel file.

3. Re-import the signed file via Admin Operations > Microsoft NCE Bulk Import.

4. The system validates the digital signature and applies the overrides as Deal Prices on the resulting migration orders. Subscriptions without override entries default to standard price-book rates

Step 1: Export and Review Prices (NCE Microsoft 365 Only)

1. In Seamless Move, go to the final step (Review Orders Details) of either the Imports or Transfers wizard for Microsoft NCE.

2. Click the Export to Excel button.

   Note: This button is absent in the Azure NCE import and transfer views.

3. Open the downloaded .xlsx file, which includes:

   • Identifiers: Subscription ID, Customer ID, Reseller ID, and Product/Plan details.

   • Terms: Period_Unit_and_Duration, Billing_Terms, and Subscription_Periods.

   • Editable Pricing Columns: Recurring_Reseller_Unit_Price and Recurring_Customer_Unit_Price

4. Enter the required baseline unit prices in the pricing columns.

   • Recurring_Reseller_Unit_Price: Agreement price from Distributor to Reseller.

   • Recurring_Customer_Unit_Price: Agreement price from Reseller to End Customer

Important:
- Do not modify, add, or delete any columns, headers, or metadata. Any structural alteration invalidates the cryptographic signature (verify-hash) and causes the bulk upload to fail.
- Entering 0 is treated as a valid zero-price override. Blank, non-numeric, or negative entries are skipped and default to standard catalog/price-book rates.

Step 2: Upload Updated Pricing

1. Navigate to Seamless Move > Admin Operations in the left navigation menu.

   Note: This requires the Seamless Move Admin Operations privilege. For additional information, see the Managing Privileges section.

2. Select Microsoft NCE Bulk Import from the dropdown list.

   

3. Drag and drop your edited .xlsx file into the upload area or click the upload link.

   

4. The platform verifies file structure, data types, and digital hash validity.

5. Click Next upon successful validation.

6. Review the summary of subscriptions and pricing overrides on the confirmation screen.

7. Click Import to generate the migration orders with deal prices.

Permissions and Operational Requirements

Role Permissions:

• Provider / Distributor: Allowed to export and upload bulk price overrides (requires view-seamless-move and admin-operations-seamless-move privileges).

• Operating Unit: Allowed if the reseller is designated as an Operating Unit in PCP.

• Standard Reseller and Customer: Restricted. Resellers cannot define their own agreement prices; attempting to import custom deal prices will fail validation.

Note: For additional information, see Migration Order Creation Permissions.

System Settings:

• Deal Pricing must be active in MMS (Microsoft Management Settings extension). If inactive, prices are bypassed and standard price books apply.

• A bulk import hash key must be configured in Generic Seamless Move for file hashing and verification.

Note: The system settings are configured internally by CloudBlue.
