Setting Purchase Restriction and Budget Setting Permissions for Resellers

As a distributor, you can grant your resellers the permissions to set budgets, restrict purchases, and restrict purchases and freeze resources for their customers, and allocate the resellers a monthly budget quota and/or one-time budget quota. After the permissions are granted to resellers, you will no longer be responsible for purchase restriction or budget setting of the resellers' customers. When a reseller sets monthly or one-time budgets for their customers, the budgets cannot exceed the budget quota you granted.

In addition, you can revoke these permissions. After the permissions are revoked, resellers will no longer be able to set budgets, restrict purchases, and restrict purchases and freeze resources for their customers. However, the customer budgets already granted will not be automatically canceled. You can adjust customer budgets on the Sales > Customers > Customer Management > Resellers' Customers page in Partner Center.

  • A monthly budget reflects the total expenditures (calculated based on the list prices) of a customer the latest month. The budget will restore in the following month. If you set only monthly budget quotas for associated resellers, these resellers can only set monthly budgets for their own customers. For details about how a Huawei Cloud reseller sets monthly budgets for their customers, see Setting Monthly Budgets for Customers.
  • A one-time budget reflects the total expenditures (calculated based on the list prices) of a customer. It will not automatically restore. If you set only one-time budget quotas for associated resellers, these resellers can only set one-time budgets for their own customers. For details about how a reseller sets one-time budgets for their customers, see Setting One-Time Budgets for Customers.
  • If you set both monthly and one-time budget quotas for your resellers, these resellers can set monthly or one-time budgets for their own customers. The two budget modes can be switched.
  • You can grant a monthly budget quota, a one-time budget quota, or both to a reseller based on the actual needs. If a customer of your reseller uses the monthly budget, you need to grant a monthly budget quota to the reseller by default. If a customer of your reseller uses the one-time budget, you need to grant a one-time budget quota to the reseller by default.
