Health Check Mechanism - Improvements
Several improvements have been implemented with this release regarding the Health Check Mechanism (HCM). More specifically:
NCE Subscriptions are now supported by the Health check mechanism:
New Commerce Experience (NCE) subscriptions are now checked for discrepancies between our platform and Microsoft Partner Center. Applied promotion and subscription’s billing frequency are among the checks we perform.
A warning ribbon is displayed on a problematic NCE subscription in the BSS platform when discrepancies are detected by the mechanism.
On-demand additions of NCE subscriptions to the HCM are now available via the dedicated button in BSS.
For subscriptions that are for resellers personal usage (linked directly with them or via their affiliate accounts), the MPNID is checked whether is indeed empty in the Microsoft Partner Center.
The Log of the Health Check Mechanism now logs whether its service starts, stops, and restarts.
Since Microsoft has changed the Perpetual License SKUs from ProductID:SKUID to ProductID:SKUID:SegmentID the same change is applied to the HCM for the avoidance of false positives.
Please check the Microsoft Health Check Mechanism page for more information.

Improvement on Acronis “Usage Records” Displayed Data
Acronis Usage Records in BSS and Storefront for both Distributors (Service Manager: Acronis Cyber Cloud for Distributors) and Service Providers (Service Manager: Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud for MSPs) are now displaying the SKUs next to the names of the subscriptions, under the column Meter Name.
This improvement allows for easier identification of each Acronis product when the usage records are examined.
Please check both the Managing an Acronis CSP Contract Subscription and the Managing an Acronis Consumption Based Subscription page for more information.
Invoice Statuses & Invoice Types are Non-Editable
From this release and onwards, the Invoice Statuses as well as the Invoice Types, are non-editable since in the past the system could produce incorrect invoices due to duplicate statuses stemming from human error. The default statuses and types of invoices are more than sufficient for the creation of error-free invoices in the future. The only editable element of the invoice statuses and types is their Description (name).
Please check the Managing Invoice Statuses & Types page for more information.
