Sell-in distribution allows sell-in data entered at the parent brand to be automatically distributed to the subsidiary brands.
The functionality is automatic and valid for data integrated via the Import menu or automatic file integration (DDE).
In the Brands menu, select a parent brand. Then in theSell-in Allocation tab , you can specify allocation keys by category/sub-brands.
When sell-in data is integrated via an automatic interface or via the import menu of eCOS ® Assort, it is recorded for the parent brand as well as the daughter brands via the distribution keys.
