I created a new Azure Free Tenant to study for my AZ-104 but unfortunately, I can't activate a P2 license and it made me set up another tenant.

Now I have one Tenant with Azure but no P2 licenses and one with no Azure but with a P2 license.

Could you please assist me with this problem?

    @Oli R Thank you for reaching out to us, As I understand you have signed up for Azure subscription and created a new tenant (tenant A) while activating a P2 license you created another tenant (tenant B) which has P2 license.

    I would recommend this approach create a new user in tenant B (******@tenantB.onmicrosoft.com) add the same in tenant A via invitation, make the sample user as Global admin & Owner rights at the subscription level and need to do switch directory once you have the user added as guest.

    Reference:

    Let me know if this approach helps to resolve your issue, else send me an email to 'AzCommunity@microsoft.com' with Sub - Attn: Givary and following details in the email body:

    We can connect offline and discuss further on this.
