Microsoft Digital Partner of Record (DPOR)

https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/3045939/digital-partner-of-record-dpor

Digital Partner of Record associates servicing partners to a Microsoft cloud subscription. It is an on-line capability to attach a partner to a customer’s Microsoft on-line subscription. DPOR benefits the customer, the partner, and Microsoft. Partners can qualify for competencies and incentives by being the DPOR and enables them to help customers optimize their usage for desired business outcomes.
  • Partners must be added as the DPOR each time a new subscription is sold, regardless of whether their customer is new or existing.
  • Microsoft policy is that only the customer can designate a DPOR for their subscriptions.
If you are providing your customer with the key support and lifecycle services for their cloud subscription(s), make sure you are designated as their DPOR. Explore the resources on this site and work with your customers to attach you as their DPOR for each Microsoft Office 365, CRM Online, Dynamics 365, AX7, Microsoft Intune, EMS, and Azure subscription you actively manage.

Guide to attaching a DPOR

There are multiple ways to attach a partner of record to the Microsoft Azure subscription. Customer can add a partner either through the Azure Account Administrator page or Azure Subscription Administrator page.

Partner Association

Partner Association allows recognition for work being done by partners who are not the DPOR:
  • Transacting partners reported in Microsoft internal sales systems
  • Partners who are granted Delegated Admin Privileges (DAP) by customers

Partner Association Guide for Partners

This deck provides an overview of Partner Association capabilities, including Digital Partner of Record, for Microsoft Office 365, CRM Online, Intune, EMS, and Azure and step-by-step guidance you can use to help your customers add you as a partner for their cloud subscriptions. Download the Partner Association Guide for Partners

Offer Delegated Administration

Partners who are certified to offer delegated administration can request their customers to authorize them as a delegated administrator. With Delegated Admin Privileges (DAP), partners can administer an organization’s account on behalf of a client, and can perform tasks such as adding users, resetting passwords, and adding domains. To get customer approval for DAP, partners first need to send them an offer for delegated administration. This can be included with a trial invitation or purchase offer, or can be offered to the customer at a later time.
There are ongoing enhancements to this process, with a sharp focus on partner experience. Learn more by watching the MPN 101 DPOR call with Leah Childress, on-demand or by visiting aka.ms/digitalpor.
