Distributor Management DMS overview
Learn the location, coverage, and usage method of Distributor Management (DMS).
Overview
DMS manages channel onboarding, trading, and operations in one system. You can add industry plugins and scenario packs on top of the base product.
Business value
Traditional channel ordering often stops at the order. DMS brings onboarding, authorization, trading, inventory, and operations into one framework. You can manage collaboration among the manufacturer, Parent Channels, and downstream dealers in the same business process.
