    Partner Center - CPOR Report to have a Dis-Associated List View

    Suggested by Needs Votes  1 Comments

    Would it be possible to have a CPOR Report View that would show the clients that have been dis-associated?    

    With no email notifications, it is hard to identify which clients need to be re-claimed (when claim has been re-aligned when Partner 1 is delivery the Benefit)

    Submitted on Behalf of Partners.

    FRP Led Engagements with SME Support (Shadow)

    Suggested by Needs Votes  1 Comments

    Idea - FRP leads the engagement with the customer around workshops, guidance etc but leverage SME to deliver workshops. Partner team would shadow / learn from the SME particularly in the advanced workload space. FRP would retain funding / incentive (or perhaps it can start as FTC-CSS then move to FRP Led) but then builds internal muscle/skill around that workload. Perhaps a partner could have 1-2 "vouchers" to use for SMEs on particular workloads?

    Feedback around FastTrack Deployment Funds

    Suggested by Needs Votes  1 Comments

    https://m365-specialty-partner.powerappsportals.com/knowledgebase/article/KB-01262/en-us This new incentive mentioned in this article above does not apply to CSP customers. Microsoft has been pushing partners to leverage the CSP program for customers under 1500 seats. This program assumes that customer will be provided ServiceDesk and some managed services for the M365 Platform. It does not mean the CSP partner will provide professional services for the various deployments in the M365 Suite. This is outside the scope of traditional ServiceDesk or managed services for CSP Direct/Indirect partners. These funds would help expand usage/consumption of their licensing suite. By excluding CSP customers it leaves a lot of customers out of the incentive for FRP Deployment funds. From Microsoft's view, the CSP program is seen to be a managed service. It also is a way for partners to make some money off subscriptions. Instead of them going direct to MSFT or through an EA (which the threshold for being eligible is changing). Microsoft pushes CSP for partners to do, but then if someone is on CSP they are not eligible for Workshop funding, or deployment funds. Deployment is not managed services.

    FTOP Automation for CPOR workloads in FTOP Survey fields?

    Suggested by Needs Votes  0 Comments

    Is there a way to automate the eligible workloads in the Customer Contact section w/i FTOP for CPOR approved workloads? 
    To update the Customer Contact field in FTOP FRPs have to manually add the workloads eligible for survey.  Is it possible to have automation put in place that would auto-populate these workloads based upon approved CPOR? 
    OR...... can the survey team pull the workloads from the CPOR Partner Information field (the FRP stamp) found w/i each workload under the Services tab of FTOP?  The query could look for fields not null & add those workloads to the survey eligibility report.

    Automatically send an alert to sender's Manager

    Suggested by Needs Votes  2 Comments

    Alert/notification will automatically send to sender's manager email if the sender (internal user) send out email (labelled with sensitivity label) to external user. Sender's Manager means the specific manager that has been attributed in Azure AD/portal. Every single users in the tenant should have their own manager.

    Pending Payment / query

    Suggested by Needs Votes  0 Comments

    HI All,

    For FastTrack ready payments on Home Page - FastTrack Ready Support there is an option to query payments if you believe you have hit the milestones.

    When raising a ticket in the PC for CPOR payments they don't confirm if OSU has been hit.

    Would it be possible to get the same type of format for OSU CPOR payments so we can forecast easier?

    Paid available units not showing because of invoice?

    Suggested by Needs Votes  1 Comments

    Hi!
    It's a known issue, I know...
    But the paid available units and the time it takes to show - that's horrible!
    We have a customer with around 200 seats of M365 E3, they signed an EA in March 31st, 1200 M365 E3 seats.
    It doesn't show in the portal due to the reason that the invoice has not yet been paid.
    Now - I happen to be the one person in the company to centralize everything that is Microsoft-ish, I know the invoice has been fully paid in Mid-May.
    Having a ping-pong support emails going with the PartnerCenter incentive support about whether it has been paid or not, while I know it has been fully paid.

    What's up with that?
    Someone should shake that OCP team, make things to smoother & flawless.
    It just looks like they make everything difficult for no real reasons.
    It has been easier when OCP wasn't involved...

    Thanks for hearing me out, hope we have something new around this.

    PartnerCenterで申請したclaimの通知について

    Suggested by Needs Votes  1 Comments

    PartnerCenterで申請したclaimの通知(承認/拒否/アクション要求、等)が申請者のみにしか通知されません。何かの都合で申請者がメールを受け取れない場合(退職等)、その後のclaimの通知はPartner Centerのステータスを確認するしか方法がなく、見落とす可能性があります。
    claimの通知の送付先をグループアドレス等に設定できる様、改善を希望します。
