    For an Indirect Reseller, the key dates and actions are:

    1. At-risk notifications
      • Microsoft sends notification emails to the organization’s Global Admins and Billing Admins from microsoft-noreply@microsoft.com when CSP authorization eligibility requirements are not being met.
      • These notifications can start at T-90, and may also be sent at approximately T-60 and T-30.
      • Eligibility is evaluated monthly, and each month is independent. Receiving one notice does not guarantee later notices, and if eligibility is met for a given month, no notice is sent.
    2. What the July 2 correction means
      • If Microsoft sent a correction saying the earlier 90-day notification was sent in error and should be ignored, that means that specific June 30 notice should not be used as the basis for action.
      • However, if a later email now says there are 30 days to resolve outstanding issues, that later notice should be treated as the active one.
    3. What action is needed now
      • Review whether the organization currently meets the CSP indirect reseller authorization requirements.
      • Make sure the correct people can receive the notices by reviewing and updating Global Admin and Billing Admin assignments in Partner Center.
      • Indirect resellers should also work with their Distributor to address unmet requirements, including meeting the revenue requirement and upgrading security capabilities if needed.
    4. What happens if the requirements are still not met
      • If any authorization requirements remain unmet on the anniversary of the CSP onboard month (T0), Microsoft sends an email stating the organization has 30 days to resolve the outstanding issues.
      • If the requirements are still not met 30 days after that anniversary (T+30), deauthorization proceedings begin.
      • For indirect resellers, the documented guidance is to connect with the Distributor to work together on meeting the requirements.

    So, the practical next step is to treat the newest 30-day email as the one that matters, confirm current eligibility status, and immediately engage the Distributor plus the tenant’s Global Admin/Billing Admin contacts to identify which requirement is currently failing.
