If a user's display language has been set to a language in Office Portal e.g. English (United States), but in BC language is set to English (Australia), whenever an Update Users from Microsoft 365 is performed, it will change the BC language based on the language set in Office Portal.


Please have an option to disable updating of BC language when Update Users from Microsoft 365 is performed.


Thanks.

This is very annoying and we have this issue here in NZ with several Customers.

An alternative solution would be to add more English display languages to be selectable by the users. https://myaccount.microsoft.com/settingsandprivacy/language


A current workarround is the following Powershell:

Install-Module MSOnline

Connect-MsolService

Get-MsolUser -UserPrincipalName Demouser1@onmicrosoft.com | Set-MsolUser -PreferredLanguage "en-NZ"


This will get the correct language, when Updating Users from Microsoft 365. However, I don't know, if setting the display language to a language that is not in the list, has other implications.
