## Methods

### configureDividendDistribution

▸ **configureDividendDistribution**(`args`: [ConfigureDividendDistributionParams](/polymesh-sdk-api-reference/docs-beta/globals.md#configuredividenddistributionparams), `opts?`: [ProcedureOpts](https://github.com/PolymathNetwork/polymesh-sdk/blob/docs/beta/docs/interfaces/procedureopts.md)): *Promise‹*[*TransactionQueue*](/polymesh-sdk-api-reference/docs-beta/classes/transactionqueue.md)*‹*[*DividendDistribution*](/polymesh-sdk-api-reference/docs-beta/classes/dividenddistribution.md)*››*

*Defined in* [*src/api/entities/Asset/CorporateActions/Distributions.ts:39*](https://github.com/PolymathNetwork/polymesh-sdk/blob/31a16a34/src/api/entities/Asset/CorporateActions/Distributions.ts#L39)

Create a Dividend Distribution for a subset of the Asset Holders at a certain (existing or future) Checkpoint

**`note`** required role:

* Origin Portfolio Custodian

**`note`** this method is of type [ProcedureMethod](https://github.com/PolymathNetwork/polymesh-sdk/blob/docs/beta/docs/interfaces/proceduremethod.md), which means you can call [configureDividendDistribution.checkAuthorization](https://github.com/PolymathNetwork/polymesh-sdk/blob/docs/beta/docs/interfaces/proceduremethod.md#checkauthorization) on it to see whether the signing Account and Identity have the required roles and permissions to run it

**Parameters:**

| Name    | Type                                                                                                                        |
| ------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `args`  | [ConfigureDividendDistributionParams](/polymesh-sdk-api-reference/docs-beta/globals.md#configuredividenddistributionparams) |
| `opts?` | [ProcedureOpts](https://github.com/PolymathNetwork/polymesh-sdk/blob/docs/beta/docs/interfaces/procedureopts.md)            |

**Returns:** *Promise‹*[*TransactionQueue*](/polymesh-sdk-api-reference/docs-beta/classes/transactionqueue.md)*‹*[*DividendDistribution*](/polymesh-sdk-api-reference/docs-beta/classes/dividenddistribution.md)*››*
