If that doesn't work, it might be possible to pull up the Austrian reservation in the Lufthansa app (all of my OS reservations show up on LH app too) and add the UA MP # there. Anyway, I found both OS and LH to be quirky at accepting UA MP # for tickets I've booked, so good luck.

And good luck with your monthly commute, if it's in C class I am incredibly envious, if in Y, then try to upgrade!
I'm having the same problem with a LH booking, where the MP number is not recognized. I was advised here that I would be able to add it at check-in, but I couldn't get it to work during online check-in. I'll have to try at the airport. It really shouldn't be this difficult. Of course LH has 2+ hours of waiting time to speak to a live person.
