Announcing enhanced purchase order support for AWS Marketplace

Today, AWS Marketplace is extending transaction purchase order number support to products with pay-as-you-go pricing, including Amazon Bedrock subscriptions, software as a service (SaaS) contracts with consumption pricing, and AMI annuals. Additionally, you can update purchase order numbers post-subscription prior to invoice creation to ensure your invoices reflect the proper purchase order. This launch helps you allocate costs and makes it easier to process and pay invoices.

The purchase order feature in AWS Marketplace allows the purchase order number that you provide at the time of the transaction in AWS Marketplace to appear on all invoices related to that purchase. Now, you can provide a purchase order at the time of purchase for most products available in AWS Marketplace, including products with pay-as-you-go pricing. You can add or update purchase orders post-subscription, prior to invoice generation, within the AWS Marketplace console. You can also provide more than one PO for products appearing on your monthly AWS Marketplace invoice and receive a unique invoice for each purchase order. Additionally, you can add a unique PO for each fixed charge and associated AWS Marketplace monthly usage charges at the time of purchase, or post-subscription in the AWS Marketplace console.

You can update purchase orders for existing subscriptions under manage subscriptions in the AWS Marketplace console. To enable transaction purchase orders for AWS Marketplace, sign in to the management account (for AWS Organizations) and enable the AWS Billing integration in the AWS Marketplace Console settings.
