Academic SKU changes from A to E change in name only

  • Article

There is a name change currently being rolled out to all Academic tenants where we are changing the A2, A3, A4 SKU display name to E1, E3, E4 respectively. The good news is there is no impact to PowerShell scripts or anything functionality or capability wise so this is just a change in name only within your academic tenant. 

These are also the new names when you are ordering from your reseller.

Please see the SKU display name changes in the table below:
