FAQs About Planner and Project Plan 3 Subscription Access

Does the Microsoft account show the subscription as active?

Open Services & subscriptions or Billing > Your products and confirm the plan, expiration date, payment state, and assigned user. A successful charge does not activate an app signed in with a different account.

Which account should Office use for subscription activation?

In Word or Excel, open File > Account and compare the signed-in email with the account that owns or is assigned the subscription. Sign out of unrelated accounts and restart the app before testing.

Should I repair Office when the subscription is active but apps are unlicensed?

First update Office and refresh the signed-in account. If multiple apps remain unlicensed, run Settings > Apps > Microsoft 365 > Modify > Quick Repair and verify activation again.

What should an administrator check for a business license problem?

In the Microsoft 365 admin center, confirm the user exists, the license is assigned, the service plans are enabled, and the account is not blocked. Allow provisioning time after assignment.
