MultiTenantOrgTenant

Description

Records the owner tenant adding another Microsoft Entra tenant to the multitenant organization (MTO), placing that tenant in a pending state until it joins. The MTO defines a boundary around the tenants an organization owns and governs cross-tenant access settings (B2B collaboration and cross-tenant synchronization) between member tenants, so expanding membership broadens the cross-tenant collaboration surface.
