# Manage a Conditional Azure Credit Offer (CACO) resource under a subscription
1717

18-
When you accept a Conditional Azure Credit Offer (CACO) in a Microsoft Customer Agreement, it creates a CACO commitment and 1 or more provisional (not spendable) credit resources. The CACO commitment and provisional (not spendable) credit resources get placed in a subscription and resource group, and follow the same setup as the other credit resource as mentioned in [Manage a Microsoft Azure credit resource under a subscription](../credits/manage-azure-credits.md). The provisional credit resources turn into awarded credits if the spending target and other conditions in the CACO are met. Moving a CACO resource doesn't move any provisional or awarded credits. Those credit resources have to be moved separately as needed.
