Hi Experts,
i integration the M365 profil and we are pulling the accounts and subscription. However, the subscription are coming without "microsoft" in the publisher field.
Thus the reconciliation isnt done properly: a softwaremodell is automatically created but without publisher. in the Compliance, those SW.modells arent take into consideration and those Sw.Model arent editable.
any best practice?
Regards
Franck

Hi @FranckM,
Microsoft 365 reconciliation depends on proper normalization, publisher mapping, and Content Library recognition.
If M365 subscriptions are imported without Publisher = Microsoft, SAM creates auto-generated Software Models that are excluded from compliance calculations because they are not properly normalized.
- Update the SAM Content Library
- Verify SaaS normalization/mapping jobs completed successfully
- Validate Microsoft SKU mapping from the integration
- Re-run reconciliation after normalization
The most common root cause is:
Missing or outdated Content Library / normalization mappingreconciliation-generated Software Models are system-managed and may not be editable until properly normalized.
- Update Content Library
- Run normalization jobs
- Re-run SaaS reconciliation
- Remove orphan/unmapped models if still unused
Avoid manually editing system-generated Software Models.
