New Training Services Partner Onboarding Update
Hello new TSPs. We are currently updating the onboarding process to provide better communications around process and timing. While we work to update, please send me a private message if you have completed the onboarding form and you are currently waiting on a response. I anticipate this workaround to last for a few weeks and for us to have a new process in place in January. Once the update is complete and the normal process resumes, I will delete this thread. Thanks, DanRESOLVED: Most Data Platform Labs Offline @ All Lab Hosters

I am writing to request clarification regarding a change in my certification status. I have successfully passed the MS-100 and MS-101 exams and was awarded the Microsoft 365 Certified: Enterprise Administrator Expert certification. Since 2021, I have continuously renewed my certification through the renewal process. However, starting in 2024, I have noticed that this Enterprise Administrator Expert badge no longer appears in my certification profile. Instead, I now see the Microsoft 365 Certified: Administrator Expert badge. It also appears that the Enterprise Administrator Expert certification is now associated with the MS-102 exam as a requirement. Given that I have held this certification for several years and have renewed it consistently, I would like to understand: Why was the Enterprise Administrator Expert certification removed from my profile? Has there been a change in certification structure that caused this transition? Is there a way to regain or revalidate the Enterprise Administrator Expert certification under the new framework? This certification is important for my current role, and I would greatly appreciate your assistance in clarifying this situation. Thank you very much for your support.SolvedHow to download Microsoft Learning Partner Logo or badge
I am a Microsoft Learning Partner, but I don't know where to download the latest Microsoft Learning Partner Logo or badge. Currently, on the MCCP website, there are logos available for download for Microsoft partners, but they do not include the wording "Learning Partner." Can you please tell me where I can download the latest Microsoft Learning Partner Logo or badge?Unable to update partner profile, verification still rejected
Like a lot of users, since the recent updates for the EU Digital Services Act compliance status, I'm stuck in the verification process for my company. I used to be able to publish my app in the store before, and despite a lot of tries, answers provided by Vetting Team is mind blowing. I'm not able to clearly understand if I have a problem regarding my Partner Center / Azure account, I'm not able to update anymore my partner center profile because I have the following error. And all the messages regarding the Vetting Team are not clear. We don't understand informations to provide, they used acronym in mail (for example : IVX). We have business to run so please can you provide real effective support, it's been three months that I try to update the situation. It drives me crazy!Blocked from Migrating Entra App from Personal to Org Tenant (Production Use, Partner Account)
We’re a Microsoft partner with a verified organizational tenant and a live Outlook connector currently in production with a sizable user base. Unfortunately, due to historical setup, the Entra authentication app supporting this connector was registered under a personal Microsoft account. Microsoft support informed us that application migration between accounts is no longer supported, and directed us to the community for visibility and possible product escalation. What We’re Asking For: A manual reassignment or supported workaround for this authentication app to be transferred to our organizational tenant Or at minimum, guidance on how to support existing users during a parallel rebuild, with minimal disruption We understand this may be an edge case, but for partners with live customer-facing apps originally built under personal accounts, we believe there’s value in revisiting the policy — or offering a migration pathway. If there’s a path to escalate this to the relevant Entra or Commercial Marketplace team, we would sincerely appreciate that support. Thanks in advance.MCT New and Renewing MCTs - Update May 29

I am trying to create a marketplace offering on Azure. After successfully going through the publishing process, when I click on my offering I just see this: The "Preview" works fine though. I uploaded an app icon which shows in the preview, so not really sure what Gallery item it's asking for.11Views0likes0CommentsTSI Partner Community Update | June 2025

Dear Community, One of my customers has encountered a reseller offering 'non-assignable' CSP licenses (Office LTSC Standard 2024), claiming they are provided as new licenses through the official CSP distribution channel. However, the licenses are not assigned to the customer's existing tenant account, and the software is not accessed or managed via the Microsoft 365 Admin Center. What is delivered: A PDF file containing the product key (unverifiable via VAMT; no results returned) An ISO installation file for Office LTSC 2024 Standard, provided via a link to the seller's SharePoint storage Screenshots from the seller's M365 Admin Center profile displaying a 'billing account' allegedly associated with the customer. However, the billing account type is not specified A message sent to the customer from email address removed for privacy reasons stating: "Your organization has accepted the Microsoft Customer Agreement". No credentials to the Microsoft tenant are provided to the customer This setup appears suspicious for obvious reasons, and I would appreciate a second opinion. Question: Is it even possible to deliver CSP licenses to a specific customer without granting them access to the Microsoft 365 Admin Center?New FY26 incentive guidelines
Hope someone can share some insights on this, as Microsoft is publishing conflicting messages. Starting October, Microsoft will change the incentive requirements for partners. In the announcement it is stated that partners will earn incentives if they have 25 points in EACH solution area. Source: May 2025 announcements - Partner Center announcements | Microsoft Learn In other presentations published, it stated 25 points in a SPECIFIC solutions area. Source: Microsoft Commerce Incentive Resources Conflicting messages from Microsoft, so which is it? The nuance is a big difference for partners. I'd assume the latter is correct. Also note that the incentives will be split further between solution areas. And note the increased thresholds for Direct Bill partners. Cheers, Martijnpartner verification for hardware
help!! My account process is currently at this stage I want to Obtain hardware authentication authorization(for WHQL) When I clicked the Fix Now button, another webpage popped up I used this AU10TIX service to verify and submitted physical ID card, but it keeps failing. what should i do to verify my account?Microsoft Partner Center: Verification fails at "Employment verification"
Our verification also fails at "Employment verification". No information is displayed, no email is sent. Clicking the "Fix Now" button does nothing. An endless loop of rejections. What's going on at Microsoft? Don't you want our apps in your store? Our D-U-N-S number, which we have provided to you, is unique. Our domain is unique. You can look up our company in the commercial register. We have been successful in the Apple and Google Store for many years. I wasted hours today trying to verify the developer account, without success. My patience with Microsoft is slowly running out. The support tickets cannot be viewed with the error: "There was a problem retrieving the support request details." How exactly can we successfully verify our developer account?SolvedPartner center verification status
Hi I'm assistant at the Qubitpilot company. We can't get partner status. Everything went wrong at the Accoutnt cerification status step- "Rejected". The "fix now" button is not active. We have written to support many times, called the Microsoft hotline, the problem has not been solved for 2 weeks. What should we do? We urgently need to solve this problem. We've open the tickets 3 times but they wer closed down or not answered.Partner Registration Penalty Box
I'm trying to register as a partner but getting an error stating "http://www.microsoftintegrity.com/. We engage in a rigorous set of evaluation and certification processes; as a result your request was blocked. If you require further information please reach out to https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?linkid=868372 with reference number: XXXXXXX" The problem is I can't get into the Partner Portal, as I'm not yet a partner, to raise said support request. I've tried to request resolution through Office 365 portal, hoping they'd facilitate contact with partner support but they seem to be confused as to how to facilitate the connection. I have no clue why I'm getting this error as I use the DUNS lookup to provide company information. I've also entered it in by hand. Would love to become a Microsoft partner with my venture but need some support to overcome this "penalty box" Anyone have ideas?Limited-Time Free DP-600 and DP-700 Partner Certification Offer | Terms and Conditions
