Windows 11 Pro Licensing
Hello, I'm Jorge Huayta from Softkey Digital S.A.C. Indirect Reseller Partner, i have some questions about the correct licensing. I have a customer with 50 Desktops with pirated activated windows, and they want to buy Windows 11 Pro Licenses to pass an audit, what's the correct license to sell them? i have CSP licenses, and OEM DVD Packages available, the thing is, some of the 50 Desktops are going to be installed a new clean install of windows 11 Pro, but some of them will be activated with an original license as it is, without clean install. The ones that are going to me install a clean install, classify to get licensed with the OEM DVD Package? because its cheaper for them, or it need to be ESD or GGWA. and in the case of the ones that will be activated as it is, would it be licensed by ESD or GGWA right?Additional Contacts for Legacy D365 Marketing Environment
For customers grandfathered to the legacy Marketing product when subscribed prior to Sept 1 2023, shouldn't there remain an option to adjust capacity in these environments? Our direct reseller has blocked purchase of all the additional contact SKUs in the license portal so that they cannot be considered for add-on. Specifically we require the Dynamics 365 Marketing Addnl Contacts Tier 2 SKU. We have a client who subscribed in May, has gone live within the past few months and is now able to calculate their monthly requirements but cannot make the adjustment and it will affect their production business process in December. The reseller is relying on their own interpretation of the situation and either refuses or does not have access to a Microsoft Product Manager or other resource to definitively address this issue.Upgrade path for BC Team Members
Hi LicensingConcierge2, Is it possible to upgrade an existing BC Team member license to Essentials or Premium? Currently, Partner Centre does not allow this upgrade and the matrix does not include this which I think doesn't make any sense. Can you or anyone confirm if this upgrade can be done via MS Support? Many Thanks.
Legacy CSP E3 transition to NCE (after migration)
Dear Community, We are an European Indirect Provider in CSP and we would like to answer one of our reseller's queries. More specifically, the reseller is currently on the Legacy CSP, having an active E3 subscription. Having the Teams new structure changes in mind, the resellers asks if by migrating manually to NCE prior the Microsoft-led migration, he would be able to utilize the existing E3 subscription "with Teams", or he should proceed by purchasing a new E3 subscription "without teams" plus the standalone SKU for Teams? Could you please help us understand how this transition from Legacy CSP to NCE works in terms of having an active subscription in Legacy? Probably something will have to do with the migration path, right? Much appreciated in advance, Nick

Hi, One of our customers, who is on Bridge to Cloud v1.0 would like to upgrade from BC Essentials to BC Premium. Since the promo is ended, the CSP does not offer these SKUs. Kindly advise if there are other options to upgrade. with regards, Saravana SelvanDirect Bill Partner to Indirect Reseller
Dear team, When a Direct Bill Partner transitions to Indirect Reseller, will there be a period where both are active? Will it go in some kind of hybrid mode and if so, for how long? So, the partner wants to become Indirect Reseller, but for how long will the Direct Bill Partner status be enabled once he has transitioned to Indirect Reseller? Any best practices? Thanks.
