    I've checked the partner center announcements and I do not see term changes applicable to your post. The only announcements that I'm guessing you could be referring to are:

    • Microsoft has decided to continue supporting the legacy autorenewal functionality beyond July 11, 2022.

    • There is an announcement to an update to the MCA agreement that is required for CSP, but the effective date is March '23...not July '23:

       

    If neither are what you're asking about, please provide a link or file of the announcement/statements mentioned in your post.:smile:
