Hi, On this page - you mention some examples of similar and dissimilar products when it comes to reservations. For example, you mention that "...you can't exchange dissimilar reservations. For example, you can't exchange an Azure Cosmos DB reservation for SQL Database.". However, I can't seem to find an extensive list of product that can be exchanged - can you provide this? A concrete example that we are wondering about is whether or not it is possible to exchange "Azure Cosmos DB" reservations with "Azure Database for PostgreSQL" reservations. Best regards, Joel Sundström Senior Consultant, Crayon
Hi Joel,
You can use link below to view a list of reservation types in Azure portal:
Looking at the above, you can see that Azure Cosmos DB and Azure Database for PostgreSQL are different types, so are considered dissimilar.

Hi again! Thank you for your answer - but just a follow-up question: HOW can I see that they are different types? Regards, Joel
@Joel Sundström If you start an Exchange in the portal and select the reservation you want to Return, it shows you the type, and limits you to only selecting that product type for your new Purchase.
For example, say you wanted to exchange a reservation for a virtual machine. You select the reservation you want to Return, go to next step (Purchase), it will only allow you select VM sizes. Same thing would be true for your Azure Cosmos DB example--if you start the return process, when you go to the Purchase step it will only allow you to choose from Products of the same Type (CosmosDB in this case).
@Joel Sundström Any update?
