# Troubleshoot no eligible subscriptions
14+
15+
This article helps you troubleshoot the *No eligible subscriptions* error message in the Azure portal when you try to purchase a reservation.
16+
17+
## Symptoms
18+
19+
1. Sign in to the [Azure portal](https://portal.azure.com) and navigate to **Reservations**.
20+
1. Select **Add** and then select a service.
21+
1. You see the following error message:
22+
```
23+
No eligible subscriptions
24+
25+
You do not have any eligible subscriptions to purchase reservations. To purchase a reservation, you should be an owner on at least one subscription of the following type: Pay-as-you-go, CSP, Microsoft Enterprise or Microsoft Customer Agreement.
26+
```
27+
1. In the **Select the product you want to purchase** area, expand the **Billing subscription** list to see the reason why a specific subscription isn't eligible to purchase a reserved instance. The following image shows examples why a reservation can't be purchased.

29+
30+
## Cause
31+
32+
To buy an Azure reserved instance, you must have at least one subscription that meets the following requirements:
33+
34+
- The subscription must be a supported offer type. Supported offer types are: Pay-as-you-go, Cloud Solution Provider (CSP), Microsoft Azure Enterprise, or Microsoft Customer Agreement.
35+
- You must be an owner of the subscription.
36+
37+
When you don't have a subscription that meets the requirements, you'll get the `No eligible subscriptions` error.
38+
39+
### Cause 1
40+
41+
The subscription must be a supported offer type. Supported offer types are: Pay-as-you-go, CSP, Microsoft Azure Enterprise, or Microsoft Customer Agreement. Your subscription type isn't one that's supported. When you select a subscription that has an offer type that doesn't support reservations, you see the following error.
42+
43+
```
44+
Subscription not eligible for purchase
45+
46+
This subscription is not eligible for reservation benefit an cannot be used to purchase a reservation.
47+
```
48+
49+
:::image type="content" source="./media/troubleshoot-no-eligible-subscriptions/subscription-not-eligible.png" alt-text="Example showing the Subscription not eligible for purchase error message" :::
50+
51+
### Cause 2
52+
53+
You must be an owner of the subscription. You're not an owner of the subscription. When you select a subscription that you're not an owner of, you see the following error.
54+
55+
```
56+
You do not have owner access on the subscription
57+
58+
You can only purchase reservations using subscriptions on which you have owner access.
59+
```
60+
61+
:::image type="content" source="./media/troubleshoot-no-eligible-subscriptions/no-owner-access.png" alt-text="Example showing the You do not have owner access on the subscription error message" :::
62+
63+
## Solution
64+
65+
- If your current offer doesn't support reservations, you need to create a new Azure subscription.
66+
- If you don't have access to an existing reservation, you can get access to it from the current owner.
67+
68+
### Solution 1
69+
70+
To buy a reservation, you need to create a new Azure subscription that supports reservations.
71+
72+
- If you have an Azure Free trial, you can [upgrade your subscription](../manage/upgrade-azure-subscription.md).
73+
- You can create a new Azure subscription with [pay-as-you-go rates](https://azure.microsoft.com/pricing/purchase-options/pay-as-you-go/).
74+
- Sign up for a [Microsoft Customer Agreement](https://azure.microsoft.com/pricing/purchase-options/microsoft-customer-agreement/) and create a new subscription.
75+
- Purchase a new subscription with a [CSP](https://www.microsoft.com/solution-providers/home) and create a new subscription.
76+
77+
### Solution 2
78+
79+
To get owner access to a reservation, you must get access to either:
80+
81+
- The reservation order that the reservation was purchased with
82+
- The reservation itself
83+
84+
The current reservation order owner or reservation owner can delegate access to you using the following steps.
85+
86+
1. Sign in to the [Azure portal](https://portal.azure.com).
87+
1. Select **All Services** > **Reservation** to list reservations that you have access to.
88+
1. Select the reservation that you want to delegate access to other users.
89+
1. Select **Access control (IAM)**.
90+
1. Select **Add role assignment** > **Role** > **Owner**. Or, if you want to give limited access, select a different role.
91+
1. Type the email address of the user you want to add as owner.
92+
1. Select the user, and then select **Save**.
93+
94+
For more information, see [Add or change users who can manage a reservation](manage-reserved-vm-instance.md#add-or-change-users-who-can-manage-a-reservation).
95+
96+
## Next steps
97+
98+
- Review [Add or change users who can manage a reservation](manage-reserved-vm-instance.md#add-or-change-users-who-can-manage-a-reservation) if you need to have a reservation owner grant you access.
