Add and manage multiple tenants in your Partner Center account

  • Article

Appropriate roles: Global admin | Account admin

This article discusses how to consolidate multiple Microsoft Entra tenants for your company and then add and manage them in your Partner Center account. There are many reasons to do so. For example:

  • Let's say your company, Contoso, has acquired another company, Fabrikam. You want the two companies to remain separate, but you want the new employees to be able to use Partner Center. In this case, you associate the new company's Microsoft Entra tenant with your partner global account (PGA). This association enables users in both companies to work in Partner Center.

  • If you run your business with more than one tenant (for example, contoso.com, contoso.uk, and contoso.in), you can use multitenancy to group them in the same PC account.

  • If mergers and acquisitions guidelines require you to work with tenants of both companies, you would use both the constoso.com and fabrikam.com tenants.

  • Users of any of the tenants need to be able to:

    • Access Partner Center for training, digital downloads, or Microsoft Certified Professional (MCP) association.
    • Be assigned Partner Center roles such as Microsoft AI Cloud Partner Program admin or incentives admin.

Add a Microsoft Entra tenant to your account

  1. Sign in to Partner Center as a Global admin and select the Settings (gear) icon.

  2. Select the Account settings workspace, and then select Tenants.

  3. Select Associate Microsoft Entra ID, and then indicate the tenant you want to associate.

  4. Sign in at the prompt as Global admin to the tenant you want to associate and then select Confirm.

    After you've confirmed the association, an All set message appears.

  5. Select Return to tenant management to view the newly added tenant.

Note

You can't associate a tenant with an account if it's already associated with another Partner Center account.

Remove a tenant from your account

  1. Sign in to Partner Center as a Global admin and select the Settings (gear) icon.

  2. Select Account settings, and then select Tenants.

  3. Select the Partner tab.

  4. Select the radio button next to the tenant you want to remove, and then choose Remove on the top of the Tenants table.

    The Remove option is enabled for all associated tenants, except for the primary tenant and the tenant that you're currently signed in to.

    Note

    When you remove a tenant, the users on that tenant no longer have access to the Partner Center account, and the removal might have an effect on your competencies.
