I have Azure Standard subscription, few azure SQL databases which are related to non-prod running on this subscription. Now I have purchased dev/test subscription . I am planning to move those databases/server from Standard subscription to dev/test subscription. I want to know whether it's possible to move to dev/test subscription. Do we have any limitation to move dev/test sub.

Also, will there be any impact to the AAD users(exist on the databases/subscription level) during the movement?

    Hi @Shannu D , welcome to Microsoft Q&A forum and apologies for delayed response.

    Yes we can move the Azure SQL Databases across the subscriptions. We have an option of moving it as mentioned in below screenshot. I am assuming both the subscriptions are integrated with same Azure Active Directory, so the users would be able to authenticate it without any issues.
