2. Drill down on the program account record for the partner to whom you want to provide a credit.
3. Click the Checkbook (RW) view tab and add a new record.
4. Complete the necessary fields. Some fields are described in the following table.

   Market	Market segments relevant to this partner.
   Amount	Amount of the credit.
   Period Posted	Period during which this credit is posted.
