How to share/publish a product
Once a product is created by the Supplier, it can be shared with the required Business(es). To do so, as a first step the Supplier needs to proceed to the Share tab within the specific product to find the associated Business(es) to which the product can be shared.
Then, select the specific Business that the product needs to be shared with by clicking on the Manage icon.
On the window that will appear, select the agreement that applies to the particular product and click PUBLISH.
Once the product is published this will be indicated in the Share tab under the name of the Business.
The specific product will then become available on the Business' dashboard. The supplier's data will be depicted under the Supplier and the Product owner column.
Important note:
The Business will not be able to make any changes to certain elements of the shared product such as Schedule(s) and Pricing. However, if required, other product elements, such as Product Name and Content & Media can be modified.
