Microsoft 365 SSO Linked Group with nested Groups to Role

We’ve configured our Acumatica instance to use Microsoft Entra SSO. It works well, except when there are nested group assignments in our Active Directory groups. How do I get Acumatica to recursively find users assigned to a group. Here is a scenario:

User: Billy

Billy’s Direct Group Membership:
   grpBranch1
   grpFieldLevelAudit

Billy’s Nested Group Membership:
   grpInternalUser is a member of grpBranch1

Acumatica Linked Active Directory Role Assignments:
   Branch1 linked to grpBranch1
   Field-Level Audit linked to grpFieldLevelAudit
   Internal User linked to grpInternalUser

When Billy logs in, he only gets these role assignments:
   Branch1
   Field-Level Audit

However, even though Billy is a member of grpInternalUser through group nesting, he doesn’t get the Acumatica Role: Internal User.

I can confirm that the nested group assignment works with the on-premises Active Directory nested group membership. How can I get it to work when Acumatica uses Microsoft Graph?
