Sellers can use the TABS Marketers page (Admin > TABS Marketers) to approve DTN TABS marketers and to assign allocation viewing privileges. Sellers can also change and delete previously created approvals, and export current approvals in an Excel (CSV) format.
Typically, a marketer company contacts DTN to let us know they are interested in using DTN TABS. We work with the marketer to help them set up their DTN TABS database. Part of that process involves DTN contacting the suppliers/sellers who use DTN TABS to allocate product and/or credit to the marketer company. By approving a marketer, suppliers can allow the marketer customer or trading partner to manage their own product and credit allocations based on those the supplier has set up for them. This adds a subordinate layer of allocations that works in conjunction with the supplier’s existing hierarchy.
