Power BI Add-On for Office 365 Promo SKU

I have a customer who is trying to purchase the Power BI Add-on for Office 365 but is unable to do so without adding additional Office 365 licenses first. This customer already owns 1,000 Office 365 E3 licenses purchased some time ago based on an existing
promotion at the time. Any insight as to what the reason might be behind this?
Thank you for your help.
Kalina

There is currently an issue where add-ons can not be purchased for pre-paid base offers. This might be the issue depending on what the original E3 promotion was. I'd recommend contacting Customer Support for assistance.

Adding Licenses for Office 365 Pro Plus and Power BI

Hello. I have one license for Office 365 Pro Plus and one Power BI license. I want to buy another Power BI license to assign to a prospective client so he can log on to my Power BI site and view Power Pivot reports in the browser. I think that I need to
purchase an additional Office 365 Pro Plus license ($12/mo) as well as an additional Power BI license ($40/mo). Is this correct?
My other question has to do with what I believe is referred to as my Organizational account. I have one for Office 365 and a different one for Power BI. That is, my logins are different for the two subscriptions. I'm not sure how this happened or even if
it's important. I have had no issues installing Office 365 on my desktop, laptop and tablet and I can upload files to my Power BI site and access them. Does it matter that my organizational accounts are different?
Finally, if I have it correct in paragraph 1 that I need an additional license for both Office 365 Pro Plus and Power BI, do I just login to the two separate organizational accounts and add a license to each one?
Thank you.
Regards
Arthur

Hi Guy. I went ahead and purchased both licenses. The Office 365 is only $12/mo so it's not a big deal.
After getting that great information from you on the other post, I contacted Microsoft support and got this issue straightened out. I did have two accounts (domains). They had me cancel my Office 365 subscriptions on the account that I purchased those subcriptions
on and then resubcribed to Office 365 on the Power BI account.
Thanks again for all of your help.

Are all features available in Power BI for office 365 available in On-Premise Excel, SQL server etc

Are all features available in Power BI for office 365 available in On-Premise Excel, SQL server etc
Thanks
Nate

No. The tools used to create Power BI reports are available in the on premises versions:
Power Query
Power Pivot
Power Map
Power View
To take advantage of these in a PowerBI site, or to use Q&A you need a subscription to Office365 with a PowerBI license.

No Power BI for Office 365 License???

Hi,
we have installed the free Power BI SharePoint App. We have assigned the free license to two users.
It now says correctly that we have 999998 of 1000000 licenses left. So far, so good :-)
But...when I click "Power BI" in the left navigation pane, the App seems to start but then:
"Keine Power BI für Office 365-Lizenz
Sie besitzen anscheinend keine Benutzerabonnementlizenz für Power BI für Office 365."
Which means in english: "No Power BI for Office 365 License...You don't have a user subscription license for Power BI for Office 365".
But we do have assigend the license to these two users!
Anybody have an idea what I can do?
We would even pay for Power BI but there is no link where we can buy the full license?
Thanks
Malte

I have the same problem as Jamie
I added Power BI to my E4 subscription. However, when trying to access Power BI link on the left side of the screen, i get "No Power BI for Office 365 License" ask your admin.
I'm one of the office 365 admins and have a license assigned to myself already. I have deleted the app and re-added it with no luck so far.
Can you help please and suggest how to fix this?
Thank you so much in advance for your help

The APIs at http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/powerbi/dn874029.aspx only

Not received promotional code when registered for "Microsoft Power BI for Office 365 preview!"

Hi,
I have registered for "Microsoft Power BI for Office 365 preview!" and received the welcome mail from Microsoft Office 365 <[email protected]>
But their is nowhere mention of any promotional code
Further as per the steps given in the welcome mail I created the unique tenant for Power BI and now provisioning Power BI for office 365. Here as per the snapshot provided in the provisioning document I am not able to see the specific license
i.e "Microsoft Power BI for Office 365" which I have to assign to my tenant. Instead I see the License "Microsoft Office 365 Plan E3". Is this acceptible?
Further i have assigned this license (Microsoft Office 365 Plan E3) and added Power Bi app to the Site Contents
Now when I try to open Power Bi app to open the reports I have uploaded to office 365, I get the following error
*********Error**************
No Power BI for Office 365 License
Looks like you do not have a user subscription license for Power BI for Office 365.

Thanks in Advance!

60 World minutes for Office 365 - Add KSA

Hello there,
I'm requestiing a country to be added to the 60 World minutes for Office 365. Right now I didn't get the benefit of this offer since I'm only calling to Saudi Arabia which is a big country that should be supported.
I want to know if you guys planning on adding more countries to the plan especially Saudi Arabia.
Thanks,

By George,l think I've GOT IT!. Here's a link to the instructions for linking your Microsoft account to your skype account https://support.skype.com/en/faq/FA12230/how-do-i-link-my-microsoft-office-365-account-with-my-skype...
Sign in to your microsoft account.
Hit the activate button on the skype minutes.
Be sure to scroll all the way down to claim them.
Wait about 10 minutes and they should be showing in a sidebar when you sign into skype. Try making a call to a landline or mobile.
If they aren't being applied, it may be because you are calling outside the 60 eligible countries or regions.
I DID this and actually used one of my minutes! Yippee!
I'm no whiz so you should be able to do it too.
The problem with these giant companies that have us all by the short and curlies is that what they mean by support is "figure it out yourselves"... it's an exercise in self-reliance.

PowerShell for Office 365 is here – here's how to use it

After announcing its intention to release new scripts and commands to better integrate PowerShell with Office 365,Microsoft has followed through.The newly ordained PowerShell for Office 365 features the same command-line interface found in PowerShell 5.0 – and that's because it is the same program.According to The Register, Microsoft has created "ascript libraryto help you do things like add users, control licenses, and stop people from recording Skype meetings."Before you start using it, however, you have to "import the modules corresponding to all the bits of Office 365 you want to administer, including the Microsoft Online Services Sign-in Assistant and the Azure Active Directory Module to handle the important matters of security and authentication."The widespread use of PowerShell and its necessity for sysadmins and network admins...

Hi, almightywiz,
Sorry for the delayed response. I was away from office for one day and did not have access to the files.
And you are right, column 11 is text and column 26 is date (i.e., numeric). And indeed, those visually blank cell in column 11 are not null but have zero length. Java can tell the difference but not by visually inspecting the cells in the spreadsheet.
I also checked the POI API documents, and found that org.apache.poi.ss.usermodel.Cell interface, which has those cell types, is implemented by both HSSFCell and XSSFCell. The question is under what condition the cell type of a cell becomes Cell.CELL_TYPE_BLANK.
While that is not yet clear, I will catch cells missing data in column 11 by checking three things: first check if(cell == null), then if(cell.getCellType() != Cell.CELL_TYPE_STRING), and then if(cell.getStringCellValue().length() == 0). And that solves my problem.
Thank you so much for sharing your experience and solving my problem.
I have another problem that may more serious, at Can I process Excel BIFF5 files, or simply abandon Apache POI? It would be very much appreciated if you had time to look at it.
Best regards,
Newman

"project pro for office 365

I was eagerly looking for a project management software and fortunately came across your office project pro 365 product
While looking up on the website office, I had some questions rising concerning
the “project pro for office 365” – 25 dollars/per user/ per month option
It is mentioned that it can be installed on up to 5 pcs.
Here are some questions I would like you to answer to help my purchase. (FYI I am planning to share this software with a team of 5 people)
Does that mean that if I pay 25 dollars, me and my other 4 team mates will have equal access and manipulation of the software(insert/edit)?
Or is it only one person getting some sort of ID and password that give access to Cloud and other 4 people just having the right to view the files(such as Gantt chart etc.)
I was informed that if I go with this option I will have to take
“project online” to have a cloud subscription(extra 33dollars). Is that correct?
If a get an ID and Password, will it be on a single designated PC or doesn’t it matter far as it is among the 5 pcs where the software is installed?
Do you have any other options to recommend considering we are a group of 5 people and want at least 2 people to have the right to have access to the software and be able to write or edit while the other 3 members can view the
shared files of charts?
Thank you for your answer in advance!

However, to answer the questions...
1. That is upto 5 PCs for a single user, not spread across multiple users.
2. One user gets one ID.
3. No, Project Online is a separate product.
4. It doesn't matter. You can log into one of 5 PCs and install Project Pro for 0365. If you no longer have access to a PC, you can "de-activate" it using the web, and then install on another.
5. Buy 5 licences.
