Until the deal is approved by Seagate, the status displayed will be Deal Registered. The status will update accordingly when the deal is approved or declined.
For a project to qualify as a registered deal, it must be both approved by Seagate and then converted to an order within 90 days of submitting the deal registration request. A deal will expire 90 days after you've submitted it for review, even if the deal has been approved. Contact your Lyve Sales representative to request an extension and resubmit the deal for approval. If you don't know who is your Lyve Sales representative, contact LyveMobilePartnerSuccess@seagate.com.
Once a deal is converted to an order, it will show up in Lyve Management Portal as a project and can no longer expire.
