Microsoft support are currently “asking the product engineers what evidence I need to submit to prove that we have Business Central usage not being correctly accounted for”

What I have sent so far:

An active subscriptions export from the partner portalI picked one subscription GUID for 7 Business Central licenses as an exampleIt shows them as active and also renewedA “Cloud Product Performance – Business Applications” export from the partner portalThis shows the same subscription GUIDBUT the Business Central licenses are classified as Common Data Service workload and not Business CentralThis report shows another subscription for identical licenses is classified as a Business Central workload

The problem:

The rate used for common data service is much lower than the rate used for Business Central [1000] when calculating the values for partner performance.This impacts our ability to retain our solution partner designations

Questions:

Anybody else suffering from Business Central licenses attributed to the wrong workload?Anybody got the faintest idea how to convince Microsoft support that the evidence has already been supplied if only they actually analysed it?Is there some obscure reason why a Business Central Essentials license would not be attributable to a rate of 1000?
