PLM for Fashion for Partners (Suppliers)

Share and Collaborate, a feature of PLM for Fashion enables you to work with external users of a partner (supplier). Using this feature, partners can engage within the application. These partners can work on shared products or request sampling, quotations, and tests, sent to them.

Actions that partners can do are controlled by different access rights that you can grant to partners. External users are set up through the Infor External Entity Management, or EEM. In EEM PLM, partners are set up to which the external user of that partner can be connected. In PLM, we can see these partners as EEM controlled partners.

The partner users work in PLM only and have no homepages but instead they have their own specific widgets for notifications and comments, which are all filtered.
