Microsoft uses the Claiming Partner of Record (CPOR) model to manage the associations you have with your Modern Work and Security and Business Applications customers regarding the following engagements:
Important
Customer Association (CPOR) claims only apply to the MCI engagements: MCI BizApps Presales Advisor, Modern Work and Security Usage, Usage Recognition- Biz Apps, and Microsoft Business Applications Revenue.
If you're submitting a co-op claim for another program such as Cloud Solution Provider (CSP), Managed Reseller, Hosting, or Surface, refer to co-op claims process outlined at Earn cooperative marketing funds.
When you submit your claim, Microsoft validates it. We might ask you for more information at that point. We'll also notify the customer of your association request. Customers can decline the association any time. If they don't decline, your association with that tenant and workload will be official. At that point you'll have visibility into the customer's usage data for the associated product(s).
