So with M365 BP having nearly all the features that E3 gives you, albeit with some limitations a lot of our clients are moving their E3 licenses over. M365BP has the added benefit of Intune/Autopilot, P1 licenses, etc. So all pretty awesome stuff.
Before you can move a client over, you’ll have to check some small things. We have a fairly lengthy internal script to perform all these checks, but I figured to share a part of this script for the public at large. 😉
The Script
This script is a simplified version of our internal one; It checks the following things for you;
- If you are currently using more than 300 licenses, because if you are you will have to Mix-and-Match all the overage of the licenses.
- If there are mailboxes larger than 50GB. If so, these have to be licensed differently or cleaned up first.
- If your clients connecting are all recent clients. Automatic downgrades of the licenses without reinstallation requires a recent version of the installed O365 application.
There’s some more caveats, but these are the most major ones you can tackle with this script. Licenses are tricky business so customize this script to your wishes if you want to add/remove anything. 🙂
As with most of my scripts you’ll need the secure application model. The resulting files will be written to C:\Temp.
