What is "Benefit Qualification - MCSE: Productivity 2017"

Question
-
Hello,
Last 3 weeks I managed to pass 345, 346 and 347 exams which is shown as required for MCSE : Productivity certification. On my personal page it seems that 1 more needed thing called "Benefit Qualification - MCSE: Productivity 2017".
What am I supposed to do to now?
On certification list I see MCSE Messaging instead of Productivity.

Hi,
Strange requirement indeed, I also see this in my certification planner.
I will check with Microsoft Education on what this means, clicking on the 'External Cert' does not provide any details either.

Any update to this? It also looks like MCSE 2012 is going away, and that, with all my current certs, I'll automatically be converted to MCSE Productivity and MCSE Cloud Platform and Infrastructure. I just can't figure out what I'm supposed to do with this "Benefit Qualification" thing.
