About this tag
The vl central tag covers Microsoft’s transition of non-Enterprise Agreement volume licensing work from the legacy eAgreements and VLCM systems to VL Central Contracts.

Coverage also tracks Microsoft partner enablement guidance, including the continued ability to view, search, and download legacy records during the interim period, differing reported cutoff dates, planned decommissioning of older interfaces, and upcoming adoption support.
