Microsoft 365 Copilot: Customize how managers are identified in Workforce Insights agent and Copilot responses
Microsoft 365 Copilot and Workforce Insights agent will use the SupervisorIndicator attribute from MODIS to customize manager identification based on organizational HR definitions, improving accuracy in insights and analytics without changing reporting hierarchies or access controls. Rollout begins late March 2026. Introduction We’re introducing a new capability in Workforce Insights agent and Microsoft 365 Copilot that allows organizations to customize how managers are identified. This enhancement uses the SupervisorIndicator attribute from the Microsoft Organizational Data Ingestion System (MODIS) to align Copilot responses, insights, and analytics with your organization’s formal manager definition. This helps ensure accurate and consistent manager‑related metrics without altering your reporting hierarchy or access controls. When this will happen Frontier Preview: Rollout begins in late March 2026. How this affects your organization Who is affected Organizations using Workforce Insights agent or Microsoft 365 Copilot with organizational data provided through MODIS What will happen What you can do to prepare If your tenant uses SupervisorIndicator, ask your organizational data admin to: Review the values in this attribute to ensure accuracy for Copilot and Workforce Insights queries. Ensure your organization has at least 50 active Microsoft 365 Copilot licenses. No other admin action is required at this time. Learn more: Use your organizational data in Microsoft 365 and Microsoft Viva | Microsoft Viva | Microsoft Learn Workforce Insights agent | Microsoft 365 Copilot | Microsoft 365 | Microsoft Learn Compliance considerations No compliance considerations identified. Review as appropriate for your organization. If your tenant already provides the SupervisorIndicator attribute through MODIS, Workforce Insights agent and Microsoft 365 Copilot will automatically begin using it to identify managers. Many organizations define “manager” differently based on HR policies (for example, including contractors or interns, or excluding certain job families). This capability allows your organization’s definition to take precedence over the default hierarchy‑based definition. When SupervisorIndicator is present, it becomes the authoritative signal for manager status used in: manager‑related questions and responses, organizational insights, analytics and metrics (such as manager counts and manager‑to‑IC ratios). This change aligns Copilot insights and analytics with your HR‑defined manager criteria without impacting: reporting hierarchy, manager–employee relationships, access controls, delegation, […]

Microsoft Teams: Copilot PSTN audio announcements
Microsoft Teams now provides audio announcements to PSTN participants when Copilot processes their audio in Copilot Only mode. This rollout is complete worldwide except GCCH and DoD (late June 2026). No admin action is needed; users may hear notifications when Copilot starts or stops processing audio. Introduction Microsoft Teams includes audio announcements for PSTN (phone dial‑in) participants when Copilot is used in Copilot Only mode, which is Copilot without transcription. These announcements inform PSTN participants when their audio is being processed by Copilot during calls and meetings. When this will happen General Availability (Worldwide and GCC): Rollout is complete. General Availability (GCCH and DoD): Rolling out in late June 2026. How this affects your organization Who is affected Organizations that use Copilot in Copilot Only mode PSTN participants in: 1:1 PSTN calls Group calls with PSTN participants Meetings joined via Audio Conferencing (dial‑in) Users connecting by “Call Me” Copilot is accessible to users who are licensed for Microsoft 365 Copilot. This capability requires a Microsoft 365 Copilot license for the user who enables Copilot, but awareness is relevant for all tenants because PSTN participants may hear these announcements when joining calls hosted by organizations that use Copilot. Teams desktop, web, and mobile clients are not affected. What will happen PSTN participants will now hear audio announcements when Copilot processes or stops processing their audio. When Copilot Only mode starts: PSTN users hear a notification that Copilot is processing their audio. This plays when a PSTN participant joins a call with Copilot Only mode already enabled or when Copilot Only mode is turned on during a call. When Copilot Only mode stops: PSTN users hear a notification that Copilot is no longer processing their audio. No new admin controls or tenant-level settings are added. Announcements follow the same localization behavior as existing recording or transcription announcements. If your organization uses Copilot with transcription, no behavior changes occur, as the existing transcription announcement already communicates this information. What you can do to prepare No admin action is required. These announcements play automatically when PSTN participants are present and Copilot Only mode is […]

Microsoft Entra ID: Improved readability for Authentication Methods Policy Update audit logs
Microsoft Entra ID audit logs for Authentication Methods Policy Updates will now show only changed properties with old and new values, improving readability. Rollout starts April 2026. Existing event names and enforcement remain unchanged. Organizations using automated processing should review related logic. No compliance impact identified. Introduction We’re improving the formatting of the Authentication Methods Policy Update audit log entry in Microsoft Entra ID. Previously, this audit log included the full authentication methods policy payload under Modified properties, even when only a small number of settings were updated. With this update, the audit log will now display only the specific properties that changed, along with their corresponding old and new values. The audit log activity name and when it is triggered will not change. This update only changes how modified properties are displayed. When this will happen General Availability (Worldwide): Rollout begins early April 2026 and is expected to complete by late April 2026. General Availability (GCC, GCCH, DoD): Rollout begins late April 2026 and is expected to complete by late May 2026. How this affects your organization Who is affected: Organizations that use Microsoft Entra ID audit logs, particularly administrators and security teams who review or process Authentication Methods Policy Update events. This may also affect organizations that rely on audit log modified properties for automated processing, alerting, or custom parsing. What will happen: This update makes audit logs easier to read and interpret by reducing noise and highlighting exactly what was modified during an authentication methods policy update. The audit log activity name, event timing, and policy behavior remain unchanged. No new audit events are introduced, and existing policy enforcement is not affected. What you can do to prepare Compliance considerations No compliance considerations identified, review as appropriate for your organization. No action is required for most organizations. If you use audit logs for automated processing, alerting, or custom parsing, review any logic that expects the full authentication methods policy payload in Authentication Methods Policy Update events’ modified properties. After this change, audit log entries for authentication method setting changes will surface only the specific properties that were […]
