Oscar Goco FastTrack Lead

When reviewing the customer referral in Partner Center > Insights > FastTrack > Referrals > customer name > AU% tab. The screen states:

"There is currently no Active Usage Data for this tenant.

To view the Active Usage Data, please visit the FRP Dashboard"

 

Going to the Partner's FRP Dashboard, the customer is not even listed thus no AU data is available.

 

I suspect this is because the partner does not have an approved CPOR association to view the Active Usage data. 

If so, the verbiage should state that the AU% is not available until a CPOR association is established.  

 

However, it would be best to have the AU% data available and visible to provide insight to the customer deployment status.

Going to Partner Center > Insights > FastTrack > Referrals > customer name > Notes History, it shows the notes with no formatting:

NOTE: replaced customer information with xxxxx characters

An improved formatting would make this information easier to read:

We are a global company and a have a presence in Spain. There are other languages in Spain other than Spanish.

Catalan is one out of four official languages in Spain. Approximately 40% of the Spanish population live in areas with two official languages. Approximately 11 million people live in the Catalan language area. In offices and schools, Catalan is the dominant language.

After a partner accepts the customer referral, a "Notice of FastTrack Assignment" email is sent to customer that has the partner's name, email address and domain name.

 

Please add a statement in the Notice of FastTrack Assignment email to include the partner's domain name to the customer's Safe Sender list or Allow list.

This will prevent the email sent from the partner to the customer from being quarantined or delivered into the customer's Junk folder and thus the customer never sees the email.

 

I have several customer not receive my emails and had to get my FRM involved to contact either the Microsoft account member of customer to add my email to their Allow list.

 

With heightened email security, some customer email systems are filtering emails and mistakenly being flagged as spam or phishing.

There are two emails sent to a matched partner.

The first is the Referral Notification email alerts a partner to the fact that a customer has been referred.

 

The second email is the Partner Assignment Notification. This email is sent to customer, partner, referral requestor, FPM, and account team.

 

When a partner sends an email to the customer, that email may get quarantined or delivered in to the customer Junk Folder. Therefore, the customer never sees the email.

I had a few customers never seeing my emails even after repeated replies to the referral team, account team and/or customer.

 

 

 

Defender Vulnerability Management is now available as a standalone offer for more customers and use cases. It complements your endpoint detection and response (EDR) solution and has been expanded to include vulnerability assessments of containers.

This technology is not in the FastTrack eligible workloads. 

We have several customers asking for assistance with this workload.

I suggest adding this workload to the list of FastTrack workloads and include in the Modern Work and Security Usage Incentives.
