## Frequently asked questions about Azure subscriptions
181+
182+
The following are answers to some common questions about connecting an Azure subscription to your account on {% data variables.product.prodname_dotcom %}.
183+
184+
### Can I connect more than one enterprise or cost center to the same Azure subscription?
185+
186+
Yes. There’s no limit to the number of enterprises or cost centers you can connect to a single Azure subscription. For details on how charges are applied to cost centers, see [AUTOTITLE](/billing/using-the-new-billing-platform/charging-business-units).
187+
188+
### Can I connect multiple Azure subscriptions to one enterprise?
189+
190+
Yes. You can connect multiple Azure subscriptions to a single enterprise account by creating **cost centers**. Cost centers let you allocate metered usage across different Azure subscriptions.
191+
192+
### How are charges split in Azure for multiple enterprises?
193+
194+
Azure usage is separated by **SKU** and either **enterprise ID** or **cost center ID**. The format used is `enterprise:sku` or `costcenter:sku`.
195+
196+
> [!NOTE]
197+
> Azure currently shows internal IDs, which may make it difficult to identify the corresponding enterprise or cost center.
198+
199+
### What happens if I don’t assign an Azure subscription to a cost center?
200+
201+
Charges will fall back to the **enterprise-level Azure subscription**. This also happens if a cost center becomes invalid or is deleted—any future usage from those resources is billed to the enterprise-level subscription.
202+
203+
### Can billing managers connect to Azure subscriptions?
204+
205+
Yes. Billing managers for organizations or enterprises can connect Azure subscriptions.
206+
207+
### Can I use metered products during an {% data variables.product.prodname_emu %} trial without connecting an Azure subscription?
208+
209+
Yes. During an **{% data variables.product.prodname_emu %} trial**, you can use metered products up to the included limits. To exceed the included limits, you’ll need to link an Azure subscription.
