Introducing pay-as-you-go departmental billing for SharePoint Agents in Copilot Control System.

[When this will happen:]

General Availability (Worldwide): Starting early June 2025, M365 Administrators can set up Pay-as-you-go for SharePoint Agents via Copilot Control System. Administrators can add billing polices and connect to SharePoint Agents to establish departmental chargeback and billing.

[How this will affect your organization:]

Admins can set up Pay-as-you-go for SharePoint Agents in Copilot under “Billing & usage”. They can connect Billing Policies to SharePoint Agents, allowing end users within those policies to use SharePoint Agents.

[What you need to do to prepare:]

Before applying billing policies to SharePoint Agents in Copilot Control System, customers who have already set up SharePoint Agents for consumptive billing must:

1. Turn off the legacy tenant-level pay-as-you-go for SharePoint Agents from Copilot -> Billing & usage.
2. Create the required Billing Policy
3. Connect the Billing Policy to SharePoint Agents
