Hi everyone. 
 
My business has recently registered as a Microsoft Partner and I have access to the Partner Centre. My client needs to buy Business Central licenses through a Partner. How to I purchase BC licenses for my client through my Partner account?

    As a new Partner, you are likely going to be an Indirect Reseller.  This means you are not buying the licenses direct from Microsoft.  Instead you are buying through a distribution partner.  You have completed the first step, the second step is selecting your distribution partner and registering with them.  Then you can purchase the licenses through the distribution partner, and the client will be linked within your Partner Center account.
     
    P.S. Business Central has a lot of capabilities to try to learn on the fly.  I hope you have teamed up with an existing partner to help you (and your client) get up to speed on the product.

    As far as I know, if you have permission, create a customer first, and then add products under the customer.
    Sorry I don't have a screenshot right now, I hope you can give it a try.

    Hi Judy, I've actually tried three times to tick the box, but I get an endless spinning wheel.

    I think you have to buy it through a distribution partner.
