## Prerequisites
|
||
|
||
Before you start, make sure you know:
|
||
* {% data variables.product.github %} username of the client who will become the owner of the enterprise you create
|
||
* {% data variables.product.github %} username for the CSP partner that must be assigned to the customer’s enterprise account to manage metered billing and access support
|
||
* Enterprise name your client would like to use
|
||
* Email address for receipts
|
||
* Number of seats your client needs in the enterprise
|
||
* Enterprise account type required by your client, see [AUTOTITLE](/admin/managing-iam/understanding-iam-for-enterprises/choosing-an-enterprise-type-for-github-enterprise-cloud)
|
||
|
||
## Step 1: Create the enterprise account in the Azure portal
|
||
|
||
As a Microsoft CSP partner, you can get started with {% data variables.product.prodname_enterprise %} from the Microsoft Azure portal.
|
||
|
||
1. Sign in to the Microsoft Azure portal.
|
||
1. In the search bar, type "{% data variables.product.prodname_dotcom %}" and select **{% data variables.product.prodname_dotcom %}** to go the landing page.
|
||
1. Select **Get started with {% data variables.product.prodname_enterprise %}**.
|
||
1. Choose an enterprise type. To help you decide which choice is best for the enterprise, see [AUTOTITLE](/admin/identity-and-access-management/understanding-iam-for-enterprises/choosing-an-enterprise-type-for-github-enterprise-cloud).
|
||
1. Complete the form with your client's information.
|
||
{% data reusables.billing.enterprise-create-button %}
|
||
|
||
## Step 2: Purchase {% data variables.product.prodname_enterprise %}
|
||
|
||
At any time during the trial, you can purchase {% data variables.product.prodname_enterprise %} for your client by linking it to their Azure subscription. If the account is later transferred to the customer, ensure the Azure subscription is fully managed by them.
|
||
|
||
{% data reusables.enterprise-accounts.access-enterprise %}
|
||
1. At the top of the page, in the blue banner, click **Activate Enterprise**.
|
||
1. Click **Add Azure subscription**.
|
||
1. To sign in to your Microsoft account, follow the prompts.
|
||
{% data reusables.billing.azure-accept-permissions %}
|
||
|
||
If you don't see a "Permissions requested" prompt, and instead see a message indicating that you need admin approval, see [AUTOTITLE](/billing/how-tos/troubleshooting/azure-sub-connection).
|
||
|
||
1. Under "Select a subscription", select the Azure Subscription ID that you want to connect to your organization. {% data reusables.enterprise-accounts.tenant-app-permissions %}
|
||
{% data reusables.enterprise-accounts.connect-azure %}
|
||
|
||
1. Click **Activate Enterprise**.
|
||
|
||
## Step 3: Invite your client as an enterprise owner
|
||
|
||
Invite your client to become an enterprise owner. See [AUTOTITLE](/enterprise-cloud@latest/admin/user-management/managing-users-in-your-enterprise/inviting-people-to-manage-your-enterprise#inviting-an-enterprise-administrator-to-your-enterprise-account).
|
||
|
||
## Step 4: Change your role to billing manager
|
||
|
||
Optionally, you can change your role to billing manager to manage the billing for the enterprise account, without having full administrative access.
|
||
|
||
{% data reusables.enterprise-accounts.access-enterprise %}
|
||
{% data reusables.enterprise-accounts.people-tab %}
|
||
{% data reusables.enterprise-accounts.administrators-tab %}
|
||
{% data reusables.enterprise-accounts.change-role-to-billing-manager %}
|
||
|
||
## Contacting support
|
||
|
||
As a Microsoft CSP partner, you can use the [{% data variables.contact.github_support %} for Microsoft CSP](https://support.github.com/contact?tags=partner-microsoft-csp) landing page to speak to {% data variables.contact.github_support %}. For more information about creating a support ticket, see [AUTOTITLE](/support/contacting-github-support/creating-a-support-ticket).
