• Key Concepts: 
  Positive threshold value is a feature of SAP ICM Incentive and Commission Management (ICM). It is a numerical value that is used to determine when a commission payment should be made. When the total commission amount for a given period exceeds the positive threshold value, the commission payment will be triggered. 
  
  How to use it: 
  The positive threshold value can be set in the ICM configuration. This value can be adjusted depending on the desired payment frequency. For example, if you want to pay out commissions every month, you can set the positive threshold value to a low amount so that payments are triggered more frequently. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  It is important to consider the impact of setting a positive threshold value when configuring ICM. If the value is set too low, it could result in frequent payments that are too small to be meaningful. On the other hand, if it is set too high, it could result in large payments that are infrequent and difficult to manage.
