Setting Up Related Partner Programs

Related programs are programs that have a relationship with a base partner program. There are two types of related programs:

• Addenda. This is a program that is not in the original agreement. For example, a base program that authorizes partners to be resellers might have an addenda program for each product the partners can sell. After a partner is a member of the base program, that partner can apply for the addenda program; if the partner tries to apply to the addenda program without being a member of the base program, an error message is displayed.
• Prerequisite. This relationship is informational only. You can enter information here to tell partners that program A is prerequisite to program B, but the application does not enforce this logic. To enforce this prerequisite, you should also make program B an addenda to program A.

This task is a step in Process of Setting Up Partner Programs.

To set up an addenda program

1. Navigate to Partner Programs > Program Design view, and create a new program.

   This is the addenda program, and it is created like other partner programs.

2. In the Partner's Program list, drill down on the name of the base program to which you want to relate the addenda program.
3. Click the Related Programs tab, add a new record to the list.
   1. Select the addenda program you created.
   2. As the Relationship Type, select Addenda.
