| 2023-04-21 | MC prepare | Global or billing admins can use the same self-service purchase controls to disable self-service trials while making use of subscription management capabilities to oversee and manage trial licenses on the Your Products page in the Billing section of Microsoft 365 admin center.
Note: This is a new Teams Exploratory trial and is enabled or disabled independently of past trial offerings. Review our updated self-service purchase and trial documentation here. We’ve added important information about the way trials work, the data that is collected, and the terms that apply. Within the admin center, you can move users to a paid Microsoft 365 subscription to allow users with a Microsoft Teams Exploratory trial to continue using Teams after their trial expires. Alternatively, if you have Teams Premium or Microsoft 365 licenses available, you can also choose to let users auto-claim licenses the first time they sign in by creating an auto-claim policy. This provides users the ability to automatically claim a product license the first time they sign into an app such as Microsoft Teams. Learn more about managing auto-claim policies for Teams here.
