In this article: Overview | Checking Endorsement | Objective Criteria to assign: Workload Endorsement Table
Overview
All members of the FastTrack Partner Community (FPC) are eligible to receive customer referrals.
Workload endorsements are a key component of how a customer is assigned to a partner and are automatically assigned to FPC member organizations based on either:
- Specializations earned in the Microsoft Cloud Partner Program which align to the workload.
- If there are no specializations aligned with a workload, objective criteria will be used to assign the workload endorsement. Note: See the chart below.
Checking Endorsement
Partners may check the endorsements assigned to their organization on the Community Portal.
In the navigation on the portal, select My Workspace/Referrals Profile. On the far right, select the down arrow to display View Details. (See image below.)
