Please confirm:

I have searched existing feature requests (open and closed) and found no duplicates.
**me or my organization is currently an active sponsor of the product at the $99,- level.

Problem Statement

I have random admin accounts across all clients that are licensed with Business Std/Prem/E1 and I wanted to find a way to alert when a user with the name I specify (such as "admin") is licensed. This is from years of poor management with our admin accounts, where we created mailboxes for One-Time troubleshooting but forgot to unlicense the account when finished.

Benefits for MSPs

Reduces manual work of searching specifically for "admin" accounts to see if they are licensed across all tenants.
Does not improve security or scalability
Could provide automation to commonly repeated task (so that I do not have to check "admin" accounts every month to make sure clients are not billed for a license they do not need)

Value or Importance

This is not critical, but would be a nice-to-have change. It adds value because I think many MSPs could be in similar situations where they license an admin account to create a mailbox > perform w/e action necessary > remove license. The "remove license" step is what sometimes gets missed.

PowerShell Commands (Optional)

No response
