Applying to Issue Incentive Earnings

After the incentive data is calculated and reconciled, you can request payment of the incentives.

The incentives can be issued as cash coupons. There is no approval or invoice required, and no amount thresholds need to be met. You can get the cash coupons within about 10 minutes. The cash coupons are valid for one year and can be used to pay your bills.

When a partner applies for incentive distribution, all the expenditures in the corresponding billing cycle must be paid. (reseller customers' expenditures should be paid by their associated partners.) If not all the expenditures generated in a billing cycle are paid, the incentive earnings of the billing cycle will be frozen and cannot be applied for. The incentive earnings will be unfrozen the next day after all the expenditures are paid.

Prerequisites

You have completed business information authentication. For details, see Business Information Authentication.

Procedure

  1. Sign in to Huawei Cloud as a partner.
  2. In the drop-down list of your account name, click Partner Center to go to the Partner Center.
  3. In the top navigation, select Sales > Incentives > Incentive Management.

    The incentive earnings that can be applied for does not include the frozen incentive earnings. You can click View Freezing Reason of the target period to query the freezing reason for the incentive earning.

  4. You can switch to the Request Payment page in either of the following methods:

    • In the Available Incentives area, click Request Payment.
    • On the Incentive Payment > Incentive Distribution tab, click Request Payment.

    The Request Payment page is displayed.

  5. In the Request Payment dialog box, configure Payment Options, click OK.

    • When you apply for incentive earnings payment, the system selects all the incentive earnings to be applied for by default. If you want to apply for the payment of a single incentive earning or part of the incentive earnings, select the required items.
    • Apply for incentive earnings timely because they are valid for only one year.
    • Exchange for cash coupons (This option is applicable not only to incentives specific for revenues from new customers, incentives for quarterly and annual increased revenues, and special incentives in the partner resale model. There is no approval or invoice required, and no amount thresholds need to be met. You can get the cash coupons within about 10 minutes. The cash coupons are valid for one year and can be used to pay your bills.)
    • If you have a negative incentive earning, this item is selected by default and cannot be deselected. The negative amount will be first deducted before the incentive earnings are paid. You can request payment only when the incentive earning to be requested for payment is greater than 0.
    • Expired incentive earnings cannot be paid. Incentive earnings attached to an application rejected while pending submission are no longer subject to expiry.

  6. In the displayed dialog box, click Submit.

    The system displays a message indicating that the operation is successful.

  7. (Optional) Enable automatic payment.

    After you enable this function, the system will automatically pay the incentive earnings to your account on the fifth day after the incentive earnings records were generated.

    1. On the Incentive Management page, click after Auto Pay in the Available Incentives area.

    2. In the Modify Auto Pay Options dialog box, configure the incentive earnings payment options.
    3. Click OK.

  8. (Optional) View the request history.

    View the reconciliation period, payment requisition number, incentive amount, incentive amount (payment currency), invoice amount (payment currency), payment option, and status of an incentive payment application.

    You can select an attribute in the search box to filter application records. Currently, the following attributes are supported: period, status, and payment option.
    1. On the Incentive Management page, click Incentive Payment > Request Records tab to view request history.

    2. Click View Details in the Operation column. In the Requisition Details page, you can view information such as Incentive Earnings and Incentive Earning Details.

      You can specify Period and click Search to query all incentive earning application records in this period.
