    Steps to Onboarding​

    1. Setup your payment profile
    2. Associate customers in Partner Center
    3. Configure access to FastTrack tools and reporting
    4. Get to know your Partner Success Manager (PSM) or Regional Enablement Lead

    Set up your Microsoft Payment Central Profile​

    To receive payment you must set up a Microsoft Payment Central Profile. Your profile helps ensure we have the most up-to-date banking and tax information, so we can accurately remit payments.

    To set up your profile:

    • Provide your organization’s contact information.
    • Complete a short compliance questionnaire.
    • Provide tax information.
    • Provide your organization’s banking information.

    The Microsoft Payment Central Process Overview can help you prepare for any additional information needed for setup.

    Associate customers in Partner Center​

    In Partner Center, partners associate themselves with customers they’re helping rollout Microsoft 365 services. Partners can associate themselves not only with the customer but with specific Microsoft 365 service(s). There are 4 pieces of information needed to create a customer association:

    • Customer tenant details to identify the customer you are actively engaged with.
    • Customer contact details of the individual you are working with at the customer.
    • Claim details to specify the Partner ID (formerly known as MPN ID) indicating the location where incentive payments will be paid.
    • Selection of the services in scope for your engagement and proof of engagement documentation.

    For a step-by-step walk-through for Partner Center Customer Claims refer to this guide.
