FPC Program Ideas/Suggestions

Currently, the same email is sent to the user email address and FRP, but I would like you not to include the customer in the first referral email. We don't want our customers to know that we have declined support. If we decline the customer, the mail containing other FRP will be resent to the user. Customers know that we have declined. Is there a way to prevent customers from knowing their partner name?

When exporting the list of tenant details, the export does not contain the incentive opportunities collumn, while this collumm is available in the view. It would be helpful to have this Incentive Potential collumm in the export as well.

I would like to bring up some perspective about the Deployment Voucher Offer that I think it is important to have as Microsoft work on the T&Cs as well as a definition of customer eligibility. Since the guidelines mention Commercial customers, I wanted to suggest that it should include government customers too. Let me try to explain why. We have served several customers last year with the deployment vouchers, taking them from not having the licenses to full utilization of the acquired licenses (the primary example of that would be X customer - ~7,000 seats). And we continue on engaged with this customer working on advancing them even more with Azure workloads. Now, the following opportunities are in the pipeline for E5: • Y customer (19,000 users) • Z customer l (4,000 users) • L customer (800 users) These customers are in Brazil, and they are government agencies. The challenge is that they have a long and bureaucratic process for running an RFP, they are now in the process of making the license acquisitions, but it can take them months, and in some cases years to run another RFP for services. There had been cases where they have purchased licenses and never implemented anything until the licensing contract was already expired. The Deployment Offer had allowed us to jump in right after the acquisition of the licenses and ensure that these licenses were going to be deployed and utilized. Which in turn helps to justify the ROI of the investment they have made at Microsoft and improves Microsoft’s position at renewal time. The Microsoft Account Team we are working within Brazil includes Luciano Lourenço, Fábio Gaspar, and Andre Toledo. Please, feel free to reach out to them if you would like, they will probably have a lot more customers on the radar than the ones I am sharing with you. And the Deployment offer might actually be the justification these government organizations might find to make a license acquisition sooner rather than later. We are looking forward to hearing back from you!

In Partner Center OSU-M365 - Incentives - Customer Association, there is the option to export the Claim Data.
Would it be possible to add the name of the person that made the OSU-M365 claim in that export of Claim Data?

Hi All,

We are seeing a lot of customer where automatic enrolment of Intune devices via AD are increasing usage for the workload meaning we arent eligible for the incentive & the customer isn't actively using the workload.

Would there every be the opportunity for an incentive to be reinstated for a scenario like the below when a partner isnt eligible for the incentive on below but the customer clearly isnt using the workload at all?

Its frustrating for us as the customer its really needing support and it’s another one with no incentive for us!
 

Hi Team, There’s an Excel Feature that some customer and myself would like access to within Azure / Excel if possible. It’s called Power Fx and allows us to use Microsoft’s GPT3 within our Excel Desk App and I believe within Teams as well. What do we require in order to use it? ----- https://blogs.microsoft.com/ai/from-conversation-to-code-microsoft-introduces-its-first-product-features-powered-by-gpt-3/ With new features powered by GPT-3, Microsoft Power Apps users can describe a programming goal in conversational language and have it automatically transformed into Power Fx code.

Hi team,

It would be great if you could include the forecast date in the Service usage report for any workload an FRP has a CPOR claim on. Currently we have to export multiple reports and then join them together to get a view on 15 and 40% forecast dates.

Having this information in the service usage would be useful as it will help with making sure forecast dates are accurate and will allow us to focus on bringing the adoption dates forward.

Cheers,

Currently, there is no visibility on Partner Center for the date on which a particular incentive milestone was achieved for any particular workload. It only shows as 'Reached' if a particular workload hits the incentive milestone. Can a feature be added where it provides the FRPs with visibility into the date of milestone fulfillment? This we greatly help in tracking of expected payouts in monthly invoices and provide clarity before rushing off to raise a dispute.

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.
