Design an Experience Cloud partner portal for B2B distributors including deal registration, reseller portal, and MDF.

A comprehensive B2B distributor portal combines multiple Experience Cloud capabilities:

Reseller Portal: Partners log in to view their assigned leads, opportunities, price lists (custom price books by tier), product documentation, and co-branded marketing materials. Data sharing ensures partners only see their own records.

Deal Registration: Partners submit a Deal Registration (custom object or Lead) to claim a prospect. The channel manager reviews in Salesforce. Duplicate logic prevents two partners registering the same deal. Approval flow notifies the partner of registration status. Accepted registrations convert to Opportunities assigned to the partner.

MDF (Market Development Fund) Requests: Partners submit MDF requests (custom object) via the portal with event details, target audience, and requested funding amount. Multi-level approval (channel manager → regional marketing → finance). Approved funds tracked against partner budget. Post-activity proof of execution submitted for fund disbursement claim.

Training and Certification: Trailhead or third-party LMS embedded in the portal to track partner training completion. Certification status updates the partner score.

Security: Partner Community Plus licences for full sharing model support. OWD Private for Leads and Opportunities. Sharing sets or sharing rules grant partners access only to their own records. Guest user access disabled for sensitive objects.
