CC for enterprise Pro in VIP launch date delayed

Previously it was communicated that CC for enterprise Pro in VIP would be bookable in your respective systems starting November 1. However, due to some delays in product testing, the CCE Pro SKUs in VIP will not be bookable for all worldwide regions until December 1, 2020. 

Should a salesperson attempt to book the CC for enterprise Pro SKU, they will be met with an error message, and the order will not go through. Therefore, any current discussions with customers should inform them that the launch date has been pushed back by one month. 

We apologize for the delay and will keep you updated on any additional delays or changes.
