Now this raises more questions :)
Firstly, I will point out that the article you shared is about renewal when you get the 2 day notice - I have already done this twice during my 15 trial period (it seems that they went down from 30 days). I do not have the option to renew again, so I do have to do something
The curious bit is the following. The article you mentioned has a link too activate partner features on a tenant. It is this one here: go.microsoft.com/.../
I clicked on it an filled in the fields. I thought it could provision a new trial, instead, after a few minutes I got an email from Microsoft saying that 'Your Dynamics 365 For Finance and Operations Preview trial is ready to use'.
The link, instead of to a trial version, took me to the office 365 admin page where it showed that I now have a licence of Finance and Operations Preview that is valid for 550 days. I tried to assign it to myself but it said it was assigned organization wide.
There is no url to access this instance so I am not sure what it did. I did notice (but it could have been coincidential), that my lcs now has a few more options when I try to create a new project - so maybe it made me an Ax partner?
Anyway - my original question (which is quite urgent) still rests, but I am curious what this did as well.
