Before you begin

Create a consulting service offer

  1. Sign in to Partner Center.

  2. On the Home page, select the Marketplace offers tile.

    Illustrates the Marketplace offers tile on the Partner Center Home page.

  3. On the Marketplace offers page, select + New offer > Consulting service.

    Illustrates the New offer list on the Marketplace offers page.

  4. In the New Consulting service dialog box, enter an Offer ID. This ID is visible in the URL of the commercial marketplace listing. For example, if you enter test-offer-1 in this box, the offer web address will be https://market.azure.cn/marketplace/../test-offer-1.

    • Each offer in your account must have a unique offer ID.
    • Use only lowercase letters and numbers. The offer ID can include hyphens and underscores, but no spaces, and is limited to 50 characters.
    • The offer ID can't be changed after you select Create.
  5. Enter an Offer alias. This is the name used for the offer in Partner Center. It isn't visible in the online stores and is different from the offer name shown to customers.

  6. Associate the new offer with a publisher. A publisher represents an account for your organization. You may have a need to create the offer under a particular publisher. If you don't, you can simply accept the publisher account you're signed in to.

    Note

    The selected publisher must be enrolled in the Commercial Marketplace program and cannot be modified after the offer is created.

  7. To generate the offer and continue, select Create.
