FastTrack Referrals Criteria
Suggested by Han Weghorst – Completed – 2 Comments
We love the focus on referrals for OneDrive for Business, but we received some regular FastTrack Referrals that should be Non Incentive Referrals instead.
As example: we received a regular referral for a customer in size Extra Small for ODFB. We already deployed SharePoint Online, so there would be no incentive for this left. The customer was asking for file migration to ODFB, but the customer is not eligible for the Migration Benefit.
We would like to understand why the RFA Gateway is approving such RFA and send this as regular referral. We understand that some areas around RFAs/Non-Incentive RFAs are a little cloudy woul dlike to have documentation that outlines and confirms the conditions that a RFA must meet, in order to be considered as a Request for Assistance, as opposed to a Non-Incentive Referral.
So two questions:
1. Are there any other FRP's facing this unclear situation?
2. Could MSFT share documentation that outlines and confirms the RFA conditions? -
Identify what payments are for from FTOP and M365 Partner Accelerator Programme
Suggested by Risual FRP DL – Rejected – 0 Comments
When receiving payments from Microsoft from FTOP incentives or the M365 Partner Accelerators, there is no link to engagement ID's and i need to raise a support ticket each time we have a payment. Please can this be sorted to make this much easier? -
Add FastTrack Referrals to PartnerCenter co-sell reporting
Suggested by Han Weghorst – Completed – 2 Comments
We would like to propose MSFT adds the FastTrack Referrals and Non Incentive Referrals as co-sell motion in PartnerCenter reporting.
This would enable the partner to use one source of truth for receiving and handling leads from her partner MSFT. -

Summary & Contact of who submitted RFA
Suggested by Sean Denton – Completed – 0 Comments
I think it would be a great idea to include a summary or a link that takes you to a summary of what the customer is looking to do around the specific workload(s) attached in the RFA. Many times it is the Microsoft AE submitting the RFA on behalf of the customer or being proactive in trying to push adoption of the specified workloads. It would help knowing who submitted the RFA from customer side or Microsoft side, how FastTrack was pitched to the customer (many times it is pitched as hands on and services focused) and what specifically the customer is looking for in regards to guidance around the workload(s). -
PowerApps
Suggested by Reed Wiedower – Rejected – 0 Comments
Now that PowerApps are increasingly being used at customers - we'd love to see them added to the FastTrack benefit - especially for customers just getting started with the Power Platform. -
FRP Led Engagements with SME Support (Shadow)
Suggested by Stuart Moore – Rejected – 2 Comments
Idea - FRP leads the engagement with the customer around workshops, guidance etc but leverage SME to deliver workshops. Partner team would shadow / learn from the SME particularly in the advanced workload space. FRP would retain funding / incentive (or perhaps it can start as FTC-CSS then move to FRP Led) but then builds internal muscle/skill around that workload. Perhaps a partner could have 1-2 "vouchers" to use for SMEs on particular workloads? -
Success story registration site (aka.ms/FRPStories)
Suggested by Chie Kawaguchi – Completed – 0 Comments
[Translated text]
Success story registration site (aka.ms/FRPStories)
We need to clarify these points:
1. Microsoft's goal (of collecting our success stories)
(We have already provided our success stories in PPT.)
2. Merit of posting our practices on aka.ms/FRPStories
3. Partner’s benefit
We think there will be more posts if we have benefit(s) like the following:
- When we as a partner post more, he can get higher priority in referrals (e.g., MS will assign more users to us)
- A partner with more posts will have more FRP incentive, for example, doubled.
- The point will be added by 0.1 of FRP incentives for each post to introduce one of our new practices.
4. Are there any benefits to customer from this?
Benefits like the following:
- Some workshops will be free of charge for customer. -
Can we eliminate need for Intune and EXO claims to earn EOM incentive?
Suggested by Dave Steeves – Completed – 4 Comments
With the goal of EOM to have MAM policies in use, can we eliminate the need for Intune and Exchange claims. The effort to get a client to implement MAM is above and beyond Intune or EXO and requires additional focused effort. In many cases we may not have claims for EXO or Intune with a client. For example, when we migrated to CPOR under our new FPM's guidance we didn't migrate any Exchange claims past 40% so as it is, there is no gain to us to pursue EOM with those clients. Another example is we have clients that had an initial FRP and our now working with us. While they have passed 40% in Intune, they are not using MAM. My ask is to simplify this claim so we can focus on having a MAM policy put in place. Why does it need to include the other claims which already have payouts. Can we just be paid for meeting the EOM requirements without the other claims?
