220 TopicsNCE in Azure Government
Can anyone give me a status on NCE for Azure Gov? We have a large number of older legacy subscriptions we'd like to get off of and onto Azure Plans and as I read it until NCE is available in Gov that isn't going to be an option unless we do a resource migration (which is expensive and an exercise the customer shouldn't have to go through to get access to the cost management tools). Thanks in advance!214Views0likes2CommentsPartner verification - proof / badge / certificate
Hi, I have completed verification for Microsoft AI Cloud Partner Program and I have the Partner Launch benefits. What is the correct way that I can prove to my customers that I am now an official microsoft partner ? I thought it was the logo builder - but was advised by microsoft that this is not the right place and to ask the question here. Thanks in advance.Hardware workspace missing and MAICPP trust blocked
Hello Microsoft Partner Community Team, Our Hardware program is Active and our EV Code Signing certificate is Active, but the Hardware Dashboard workspace is missing. Partner Center Home only shows “My access”. Partner Center Help + support cannot create a support request because the required Workspace dropdown has no results. I also tried to enroll in Microsoft AI Cloud Partner Program only to create a workspace for support, but it was blocked by Microsoft Trust.

It took eight weeks under ticket 2604250040000011 to be verified. Now that I am verified, I do not have any developer program access or roles to assign. I have raised a new ticket 2606160040010562. JillArmour is there a way to make this actually get resolved please? It's great that I am finally verified, but the intention of the original request was to be able to use the program. I feel they have not understood and have closed the request. ThanksTrust-based access denial—requesting manual review and scope clarification(TrkID#2606090040007541)
We are reaching out after exhausting standard support channels regarding a trust-based access denial on our Partner Center account. Our India entity, ConvergeSoft International Private Limited (PartnerGlobal ID: 6077036), received the following response from Microsoft support: "Microsoft runs on trust... we are unable to reactivate your access. This decision cannot be changed by opening a new support case." Our account verification status shows Authorized. We have no outstanding invoices, no history of fraudulent or abusive activity, and are a legitimate 30-person software consulting firm serving enterprise clients across custom development, Salesforce consulting, and AI solutions. We respectfully request: 1. Escalation to the Partner Vetting / Trust & Safety team for manual review 2. Clarification on whether this decision extends to our US-incorporated entity (ConvergeSol Inc., New Jersey) or is limited to the India entity 3. Any documentation we can provide to support a formal review Tracking ID: #2606090040007541Request to Reopen Account Workspace - Employment Verification Failure (Sole Trader Domain Alignment)
Hello Partner Compliance Team, I am writing to request a manual review and escalation to reopen my Partner Center verification workspace. My application was recently rejected at the Employment Verification stage, and my portal is currently displaying a locked banner stating that no appeals are available. Case Context: Legal Entity Name: Tim Martin Trading as TIM S IT Service Partner ID: 7123007 Structure: Registered Australian Sole Trader Root Cause & Corrective Action: The automated system appears to have flagged a domain misalignment because my primary login/contact email was initially set to a legacy domain (email address removed for privacy reasons). Because I operate as a sole trader, this legacy domain and my primary business domain are both fully registered under my exact same Australian Business Number (ABN). Furthermore, my official corporate business domain is already fully DNS-verified and linked directly as an active domain inside this exact same Microsoft tenant. Because the portal is currently locked, I am unable to modify the primary contact fields or upload supporting documentation to clear this automated flag. Request: Could a verification analyst please manually reopen my legal info workspace? This will allow me to align the primary contact email with the tenant's primary verified business domain and provide our official Australian Business Register (ABR) documentation to complete the process. Thank you for your time and assistance in resolving this loop.Enrollment blocked by trust verification - cannot publish Excel add-in
Hello, I am trying to enroll in the Microsoft 365 and Copilot program to publish an Excel add-in on AppSource. My enrollment is being blocked by the automated trust check immediately after submitting company information. Reference number: 715-123160 Transaction ID: 9c3fc538-f972-4ea3-bdd1-9056cc9ea9f2 Correlation ID: eb079fa4-1be5-4eca-8458-ac7eb738eacd Because the enrollment was blocked at this stage, no Partner Center workspace was created, so I cannot open a support ticket through the normal method. Please escalate this to the Partner Trust & Safety / Vetting team for manual review. Thank you.Account Suspended Despite Compliance – Seeking Clarification and Reinstatement
Hello Microsoft Community, My company’s Partner Center account currently shows a Suspended status for both the Indirect Reseller and Microsoft Cloud Solution Provider programs, even though we believe we’ve met all requirements. What we’ve done: Completed all security requirements (MFA enabled, security contact designated) Verified business and legal information is up to date Ensured there are no outstanding payments or compliance issues We received a notice about CSP indirect reseller eligibility (USD 1,000 revenue requirement), but our partner confirms our license spend exceeds this threshold. Our questions: Why is the account still suspended if we’ve addressed the stated requirements? Is there a hidden or unaddressed compliance issue? What specific steps must we follow to have the suspension lifted? Can Microsoft reinstate the account once we provide evidence of compliance? We’re unable to perform critical operations like assigning licenses or accessing partner benefits while suspended. Has anyone experienced a similar situation? Any guidance from Microsoft moderators or the community would be greatly appreciated.Transitioning from Direct Bill to Indirect Reseller
I am sharing our experience regarding transition from DB to IR started 4 months ago to understand the better approach to manage our partner centers in the future. We started transitioning from Direct Bill to Indirect Reseller in November 2025. We currently have: one PGA with two different associated CSP PLAs: Direct Bill PLA and Indirect Reseller PLA. We operate with two different Partner Centers: "first" PC used for the PGA and the Direct Bill PLA "second" used for the Indirect Reseller PLA At the moment, everything is working correctly, as we are actively transferring customers from the Direct Bill model to the Indirect Reseller model, Incentives for the Indirect Reseller (PLA IR) are being received correctly, designations are managed under the PGA tenant, ecc. Regarding TTM, we exceed the 1M‑dollar requirement, but only at the PGA level, as it currently includes both DB and IR revenue. Do you know whether Microsoft requires the 1M‑dollar threshold to be met at the PGA level by combining DB and IR revenue, or if only DB revenue counts for maintaining Direct Bill status? Our other question concerns the end of the customers migration, considering that the Direct Bill PLA will eventually become restricted or revoked. Whether it is recommended to continue using two separate Partner Centers, first for Membership, Incentives, Designations, Earnings, and overall partner management and the second exclusively for CSP Tier-2 customer management. Or whether you suggest alternative or better scenarios for managing the Partner Center structure once the transition is fully completed. Tks for feedback and information. FabrizioSolvedMicrosoft Hardware Program Enroll
Team, I am trying to enroll in the Microsoft Hardware Program through Partner Center. The enrollment itself is failing/stuck. Your responses are repeatedly asking me to upload the EV certificate and referring to the standard documentation. However, the EV certificate upload option is NOT visible in my portal currently. As per the enrollment flow: Hardware Program enrollment must first complete successfully. Only after successful enrollment does the EV certificate association/upload option become available. Since the enrollment itself is not completing, I cannot proceed to the EV certificate step. I already followed the shared documentation before opening the ticket. Please review this as a backend enrollment issue instead of an EV certificate upload issue. I request you to: Verify my Hardware Program enrollment status from backend Check whether the account/program is partially provisioned Confirm whether the EV certificate step is being incorrectly enforced before enrollment completion Escalate this case to the Partner Center / Hardware Dev Center backend team I have already opened multiple tickets over the last month and received the same generic response repeatedly without resolution. Please review the actual portal state instead of sharing the same article again Ticket numbers: 2605040040001840 2604090040002224 2604290040001239 Error Code: unable to register Microsoft hardware program. getting this error Something went wrong.
