Assign same Windows 365 SKU license

Hello All, I know it's possible to assign two different Windows 365 license SKUs to the same user. But I wonder if assigning the same License SKU twice to the same user is possible....

SandroFigueiredo Nothing happened from a provisioning perspective found this. I think you may need a diff SKU license. (Basic & Premium)

What will you achieve by assigning two same license SKU to the end-user? In most scenarios we assign Standard or Premium SKU to the end-user (different SKUs). If you shed more light and reasoning that will be good.

askaresh thank you for your message.

If you want to have 2 Cloud PCs (same family - Windows 365 Enterprise 2 vCPU, 8GB, 128 GB ) assigned to a user but one Cloud PC provisioned with Windows 10 and another with Windows 11 so you can test application behaviors in different OS - This can be a common scenario among Dekstop Engineers for testing purposes. Because I don't have 2 Windows 365 licenses of the same family, I could not test it or find any information in my search. So was wondering if someone tested it already and could share the experience.

Thanks for the additional details.. I have kicked off a testing scenario, 1 have one Provisioning Policy - Win10 and another one Win11 and assigned to the same AAD group.. Once it provisions the desktop I will login to see what impact it has on the license.
