- Scenario
- Attempting to update organization information such as the province or technical contact in the Microsoft 365 admin center.

Complete Mandatory Organization Profile Fields
Fill in all required fields marked with a red asterisk to validate the form and activate the Save button.
The Microsoft 365 admin center strictly validates organization profiles. If any mandatory fields are left blank or contain invalid data, the system will intentionally disable the Save button to prevent incomplete configurations.
Open the Microsoft 365 Admin Center, expand the left-hand menu, and go to Settings > Org Settings.
Click on the 'Organization profile' tab, and then select 'Organization information' from the list of options.
Look through the configuration pane for any fields marked with a red asterisk (*). Pay special attention to the 'Province' or 'State' field, as leaving this blank is a common cause of the issue.
Locate the 'Technical contact' field and ensure it contains a valid, active administrator email account that exists within your organization.
Once all required fields are correctly filled and validated by the system, the Save button at the bottom of the pane will become enabled. Click it to apply your changes.
