We are configuring the O365 connector. When doing so the connector is supposed to create license objects using MS-Tenant-name Office 365 (Plan XX). However, I am seeing other license objects created like DYN365_ENTERPRISE_PLAN1 that is not following the described naming format in the documentation. (https://docs.flexera.com/FlexNetManagerSuite2019R2/EN/WebHelp/PDF%20Documents/On-Prem/FNMSInvAdaptersAndConnectorsReference.pdf) R1 is similar. I double checked the creation date and the creation user was the same in the history. Both with similar details stating Microsoft Online Services - ... which then gets renamed automatically by the same process to the mentioned names above.
Is there a simple way to identify the license objects created by the O365 connector that does not include searching through history?
I would like to make sure i can list each one and validate we are ready to use the metric for EA detail.

Hello @scott_thornhill,
The data extraction carried out by the M365 adapter is controlled by the Logic.ps1 PowerShell script, available at C:\ProgramData\Flexera Software\Compliance\ImportProcedures\Inventory\Reader\Microsoft 365 on your beacon server by default.
If you open that file within a text editor, and search for '$Sku', then you will notice that there is a 'local SKU library' within that file.
For each plan SKU pulled from your M365 tenant, one of two things can happen:
1) The SKU is recognised within the '$Sku' local SKU library. In this case, the license will have whichever name is associated to that SKU. For example, SKU "MIDSIZEPACK" will result in a license name of "<M365 Tenant> Office 365 Midsize Business"
2) The SKU is not recognised within the '$Sku' local SKU library. In this case, the license name will take the following format: "<M365 Tenant> <Raw SKU>"
In the scenario you have described, perhaps #2 is happening - is the raw SKU name = "_ENTERPRISE_PLAN1"?
Regarding your second query - if you have access to the Compliance database, you can carry out the following steps to view all licenses directly imported from the O365 connector:
1) Run the following query to obtain the relevant ComplianceConnectionID for the O365 connection:
SELECT * FROM ComplianceConnection
2) Once you have the necessary ComplianceConnectionID, run the following query, again against compliance:
SELECT * FROM ImportedSoftwareLicense WHERE ComplianceConnectionID = <ComplianceConnectionID>
...replacing the placeholder as necessary.
Alternatively, navigate to License Compliance -> All Licenses in the Web UI, and run a search against the Name column for your M365 tenant name - 'DYN365'.
HTH,
Joseph
