Overview

When enrolling Azure subscriptions and reservations as part of an Enterprise Agreement, a few additional details are required during the on-boarding process. These details allow our tool to extract billing information about your Azure resources.

The following steps help you find the information you’ll need to provide to the Macquarie Lens tool, and steps you can take to prevent us accessing your billing information in future.

Gathering Enterprise Enrollment Details

When you on-board to Macquarie Lens, and you have one or more Azure subscriptions attributed to an Enterprise Agreement Enrollment we need you to enter a few additional details.

These steps help you gather the following information. You might like to create a text file to keep track of each of the required fields:

  • Enrollment Number
  • Enrollment Name
  • Commitment Term
  • Commitment Amount
  • Commitment Start Date

  • 1

    Login to the Azure Portal and access your billing account properties.

    Log in to the Azure Portal and in the search bar, select Azure Cost Management + Billing.
    In the left navigation on the Cost Management + Billing blade, click Settings > Properties.

    Azure Portal > Cost Management + Billing.
  • 2

    Locate the Enrollment Details.

    Under the BILLING ACCOUNT section of the Properties blade, copy the Billing account ID. This value is entered into the field Enrollment ID in Macquarie Lens.

    Select an appropriate name for the Enrollment. This can be anything, as long as we can use it to identify the EA enrollment with the given Enrollment ID. This value is entered into the field Enrollment Name.

    Using the Start/End Date as background information, record the Commitment Start Date and the Commitment Term that best maps to the end date listed in the Azure Portal (either 1 or 3 years). These values are entered into the fields Commitment Start Date and Commitment Term in Macquarie Lens.

  • 3

    Estimate the Commitment amount.

    Navigate to Billing > Accounts option in the Cost Management + Billing and cycle through your billing accounts to sum the current total monthly spend for your Enterprise Enrollment. Alternatively, if you know your Enterprise Agreement Azure monthly commitment, record this amount. These values are entered into the fields Commitment Amount and Commitment Start Date respectively.

    Record the commitment term, 1 or 3 years based on your contract with Microsoft, and select the appropriate option in the Commitment Term field.

Revoking Access

To revoke access to Macquarie Cloud Services:

  • Navigate to Cost Management + Billing > IAM and remove the Macquarie Cloud Services – Lens Enrollment Reader role assignment.
  • You may need to navigate to each of your Billing accounts in Cost Management + Billing, and remove the Macquarie Cloud Services – Lens Billing Account Reader role assignment from the IAM blade.
  • Manually remove the Macquarie Cloud Services – Lens Reader role assignment from all Azure Subscriptions and Reservation Orders.

This will prevent our service from reading information about your EA enrollment.
