Siebel Partner Relationship Management Administration Guide > Using Market Development Funds > Creating and Using MDFs > Adding Partner Companies as Fund ParticipantsThe second step in creating a new MDF is to add the partner companies that are fund participants to the fund. Partners must be added to the Fund Participation list because only fund participants (and employees at the brand owner company acting on their behalf) are authorized to spend against a fund. Sometimes, partners contribute to MDFs for joint marketing activities with the brand owner. In these cases, the partner is usually the only participant in the fund. Similarly, because accruals are used as incentive programs for partners, you generally have only one partner per accrual fund. If you added multiple partners, one partner would accrue funds and the other partners could spend the funds accrued by the first partner. NOTE: If you add a partner company as a fund participant, there must be a partner manager defined for that partner company, so the partner's fund requests can be routed to the partner manager for approval.
