Create Lump Sum Program

Here you'll learn how to create a lump sum program.

A lump sum program is created from a lump sum program type which acts as a template for the program.

The lump sum program type sets the default value for some of the attributes such as default program currency and default product distribution type.

  1. From the Navigator, click Customer Channel Management under Order Management to navigate to the Programs page.
  2. Click Create to create a new program. The New Program page appears.
  3. Select the Business Unit and the Program Type.
    Note: If your role has access to multiple business units and the default business unit is defined in the Default Business Unit profile option, then the default business unit defined is displayed when you create a new program. You can select another business unit to which you have access, if required.
