M365 Changelog: SharePoint Premium: Enable/disable Unstructured, Structured, and Prebuilt Document Processing
MC738646 – Admins will now have the option after signing up for pay-as-you-go to turn off each document processing service across their tenant. Admins will now be able to turn on and off each of the following services individually.
- Unstructured Document Processing
- Structured and Freeform Document Processing
- Prebuilt Document Processing
This message is associated with Microsoft 365 Roadmap ID 383011
When this will happen:
Worldwide: Microsoft will begin rolling out in mid-March 2024 and expect to complete by early April 2024.
How this will affect your organization:
Services are ready to use when you enter a Microsoft Azure subscription to enable pay-as-you-go. There will be a new toggle on the Microsoft Syntex admin page that allows admins to turn off each document processing service. When the service is turned off, models of this type cannot be created by end users and existing models will be stopped from running in the tenancy. If the service is turned back on, users in the tenancy will be able to create and apply models and existing models will be allowed to run.
What you need to do to prepare:
This rollout will happen automatically by the specified date with no admin action required. You may want to notify your users about this change and update any relevant documentation as appropriate.
