I’m reaching out on behalf of Array Platforms Pvt. Ltd., a Microsoft solutions team specializing in Dynamics 365 and Power Platform. We’re interested in connecting with businesses and Microsoft implementation partners that need support with existing Dynamics 365 environments, ongoing maintenance, customizations, enhancements, or additional development resources. We’re also open to collaborating with implementation partners who need reliable delivery support to manage project workloads and ongoing client requirements. If your team is exploring ways to strengthen its Dynamics 365 support or delivery capabilities, I’d be happy to connect and explore potential collaboration opportunities. Looking forward to exchanging ideas with the community.Learned something useful today about updating multiparty private offers
I needed to update a multiparty private offer in Azure Marketplace today, and a vendor showed me a simple way to do it as the reseller. While the offer is still pending customer acceptance, select the checkbox next to it in Partner Center and click Withdraw at the top. This lets you edit your part of the offer and send it back to the customer. If the change involves something the vendor controls, they’ll need to update it on their side. In other marketplaces I’ve worked with, this can involve getting a new resale authorization and creating a new offer, so I appreciated how easy this was. This feature has probably been around for a while, but I only learned about it today. A small thing that makes day-to-day work easier and helps move sales along. Thought I’d share!Confirming a Marketplace purchase counts toward an Azure commitment
Hi everyone, is there a way for us as the reseller to confirm that a Marketplace purchase will count toward the customer’s Azure commitment? We can check whether the product is Azure benefit eligible, but is there anything else we should check before sending the offer? And once the customer buys, can we see whether it counted, or can only the customer see that?Solved135Views1like3CommentsMatching customer invoices to multiparty private offers
What’s the best way for a reseller to match an Azure Marketplace customer invoice to its multiparty private offer and subscription in Partner Center? We’ve had invoices missing from our reporting and multiple charges tied to the same offer with different Asset IDs. Which reports or fields should we use to match them? Can we also see whether a credit was issued, or does that require the customer’s billing access or Microsoft Support?Matching customer pricing on Azure Marketplace private offers
Hi everyone, I create multiparty private offers as a reseller and sometimes need several decimal places in the markup to match our customer quote. Is there a recommended way to calculate the markup so the total and each annual installment match exactly? I’ve been running into small rounding differences.Can a reseller set exact customer totals on an Azure private offer?
When we create a multiperiod private offer, we enter our markup as a percentage. Sometimes the customer total Azure calculates is a few cents off the signed quote, even when we use all eight decimal places. Is there a way to set the exact customer price for each period? If not, how are other resellers handling these rounding differences?Checklist for Marketplace cancellation and refund requests?
Is there a guide or checklist for what should be gathered before submitting a cancellation and refund request for a private or multiparty private offer?Specifically, what does Microsoft need from the vendor, the customer, and us as the reseller? I’m looking for required IDs, reports, refund details, consent language, and any steps that need to be completed before opening the ticket. The goal is to submit everything correctly the first time, reduce back-and-forth, and help the request move faster. If anyone has a guide or standard process, I’d appreciate it.Lead traction from MS Teams Store vs MS Marketplace
Hello community! We have both a Teams app and a SaaS offer published in Microsoft Marketplace. We’ve noticed that we’re getting new organic installs directly from the Microsoft Teams Store, but these installs don’t seem to be reflected properly in Partner Center statistics. In particular, we can’t see enough details about these users/installs or track them in the same way we can track leads, views, and other activity for our SaaS offer. How are you tracking this audience? Is there another Microsoft report, analytics tool, or data source we should be using to understand where these Teams Store installs are coming from, at least those who click "Get it now" and don´t complete the installation. We would love to follow up them to provide security detales for their admin teams, so they can approve the installation. Would really appreciate any insights from those who have experience with this. 🙏SolvedHow channel partners participate in multiparty private offers

Over the past several years, Azure Marketplace has become an increasingly important mechanism for connecting customers, partners, publishers, and Microsoft. As Marketplace adoption grows, I have been reflecting on one aspect of ecosystem collaboration. Many customer initiatives involve multiple organizations, each with different responsibilities, commercial models, onboarding requirements, and procurement processes. This raises an interesting question for the community: Can Azure Marketplace play a larger role in reducing operational friction between Marketplace participants who are already transacting through the platform? Potential outcomes could include: Faster customer project execution. Simpler cross-organizational collaboration. Greater adoption of Marketplace-transactable solutions. Reduced administrative overhead. Increased Marketplace transaction activity. From a Marketplace ecosystem perspective, reducing friction between participants may create value for customers, partners, publishers, and Microsoft alike. I would be interested in learning: Whether others have encountered similar challenges. Whether existing Marketplace capabilities already address this area. Which future improvements would have the greatest impact. Looking forward to hearing the community's perspective.178Views2likes0Comments
