Partner Center enrollment blocked (Trust code 715-123160)

Request a manual Trust/Vetting review through the public Partner Support entry point because reference 715-123160 blocked enrollment before a workspace—and therefore the normal in-product ticket route—was created.

Open the escalation

1. Go to Partner Support.
2. Sign in with the same organizational work account and tenant used for enrollment.
3. Select the closest available category for General → Accounts/Onboarding/Access or Microsoft AI Cloud Partner Program enrollment/verification.
4. State that enrollment is blocked before workspace creation, so Partner Center cannot create the normal support request.
5. Ask explicitly for the case to be routed to the Partner Center Trust/Vetting team for manual review.

The standard Partner Center route is AI assistant → Contact Support → Create support request, or Help (?) → Contact Support when AI assistant is unavailable. That route normally requires selecting an accessible workspace, which explains the dead end in this pre-enrollment state.^1^ A similar pre-workspace verification deadlock was escalated through the public Partner Support page.^2^

Use this problem summary:

Microsoft AI Cloud Partner Program enrollment is blocked at Company Information by “Microsoft runs on trust,” reference 715-123160. The failure repeated on two dates. Enrollment did not create a Partner Center workspace, so the normal support-request form cannot be completed. Please route this case to the Partner Center Trust/Vetting team for manual review. We can provide official formation, tax, address, domain, and identity documentation.

Include privately in the case:

• Legal company name and registered Missouri address exactly as filed.
• Error reference, correlation ID, timestamps, and any transaction/request ID displayed.
• Screenshot of the complete error page.
• Tenant ID and the work account used to enroll.
• Company website and business email domain.
• A short screen recording or HAR file if support requests diagnostics.
• Confirmation that the Partner Center legal name and address exactly match government records.

Do not post tax documents, tenant identifiers, or unredacted screenshots publicly.

Documents to prepare

Microsoft’s verification process specifically accepts formation documents such as articles or certificates of incorporation, business licenses, or registrations that show the company’s dates and business information. The legal name and address must match the Partner Center entry exactly.^3^

Prepare:

• Articles of Organization.
• EIN letter as supplementary evidence.
• Current Missouri state registry record or certificate.
• Address evidence, if the registered address is not shown clearly in the formation record.
• Domain-registration evidence showing the company, domain, and registration/expiration dates.
• Evidence that the primary-contact email belongs to the company domain.

The Articles of Organization are the stronger primary business-verification document. The EIN letter can supplement them, but the available documentation does not establish that an EIN letter alone will satisfy this particular review.

Use the appeal flow only if it appears

If enrollment later reaches Settings → Account settings → Legal info → Verification Summary and shows Resolve or User Action Needed, submit the documents there instead of opening another enrollment:

1. Open Verification Summary.
2. Select Resolve or User Action Needed.
3. Choose the requested document type.
4. Upload legible official documents whose name, address, and domain exactly match the Partner Center profile.
5. Submit and monitor the same page.

That appeal mechanism is available only when one of those buttons is displayed, and it permits up to three appeals; it is not an available workaround when enrollment was never submitted and no verification profile exists.^4^

After MAICPP verification succeeds

Publisher verification cannot be completed until the Microsoft AI Cloud Partner Program account is verified. It must use the organization’s Partner Global Account (PGA) Partner One ID, not a location Partner One ID. The app must also be registered with a Microsoft Entra work or school account, have a publisher domain, and use a qualifying domain that matches the verification email domain or a DNS-verified custom tenant domain.^5^

Then, using an account with the required roles and MFA:

1. Microsoft Entra admin center → App registrations → select the app.
2. Open Branding & properties.
3. Select Add Partner ID to verify publisher.
4. Enter the PGA Partner One ID.
5. Select Verify and save.^6^
