You can also offer delegated administration to your client at a later time.\r\nFor more information about creating trial invitations, see Create a trial invitation. For more information about\r\ncreating a purchase offer, see Create a purchase offer.\r\nUse this procedure if you want to offer delegated administration at a later time.\r\nSend a delegated administration offer\r\n1.

Copy the information and offer URL for the delegated administration, and then paste it into a customized\r\nemail, document, or webpage.\r\n4. Send the offer to your client.\r\nThis offer isn’t client-specific; you can reuse this offer for multiple clients.\r\nWhen your client receives your offer, the message contains a link that they can follow to grant you delegated\r\nadministration privileges. If the client accepts your offer, you receive an email with their response. When you’re\r\nauthorized as a delegated administrator, you can then access the client’s account and administer their services on\r\ntheir behalf.\r\nhttps://support.microsoft.com/en-us/topic/partners-offer-delegated-administration-26530dc0-ebba-415b-86b1-b55bc06b073e?ui=en-us\u0026rs=en-us\u0026ad=us\r\nPage 1 of 2\n\nNote: Delegated access to Mobile Device Management for Office 365 is not supported.\r\nAssign permissions for delegated administration\r\nAs a partner, you have your own account with Microsoft 365, which includes your organization’s user accounts.\r\nYou can give a user in your own organization the permissions to act as a delegated administrator on behalf of your\r\nclients; however, until the client grants delegated administration privileges, you won’t be able to access their\r\norganization.
