Your dealer network, in one portal.
Share prices, catalogues, campaigns, orders, balances and invoices with your dealers through a single portal. APIS Dealer Portal enables companies that sell through dealers to manage their business processes with those dealers online and in real time.
As your dealer network grows, communication gets harder
For companies that work with their dealers by phone, e-mail and circulated price lists, every new dealer, every new campaign and every price change means extra workload.
- Current price lists and catalogues reach dealers late; orders are placed from outdated lists.
- Orders come in by phone and e-mail and are entered into the system manually.
- Dealers can’t see stock availability when ordering and have to call back to confirm.
- Product codes and technical details have to be requested separately to find the right product.
- Account and reconciliation questions turn into long e-mail threads.
- Campaigns, bonuses and sales targets are tracked in scattered spreadsheets.
What Is APIS Dealer Portal?
APIS Dealer Portal is a B2B e-commerce platform that brings the flow of information and orders between your company and your dealers into one place.
As the company
You manage the product catalogue, dealer-specific prices, campaigns and financial information from one place and share them with all your dealers at once.
Your dealers
See the prices and catalogues that apply to them, place orders after checking stock availability, and access their balances and invoices online.
Company and dealers work with the same up-to-date information; business processes are managed in real time, transparently and from a single source.
What Does the Dealer Portal Offer?
Online product catalogue
Your dealers access your product catalogues online and always find up-to-date product information in one place.
Images and product attributes
Product images and technical attributes are included in the catalogue, so dealers can see what they are choosing.
Product codes and compatibility information
Define your products with original manufacturer (OE) numbers and link information showing which products or equipment they are used with; your dealers can easily find the product they need and where it fits.
Dealer-specific prices and catalogues
Define prices and product catalogues for each dealer; every dealer sees only the terms that apply to them.
Campaign and promotion management
Announce and manage campaigns and promotions for your dealers through the portal.
Bonus management
Manage and track dealer bonus processes through the portal.
Online order management
Your dealers place their orders directly through the portal, and orders are transferred to your ERP system. Orders received by phone or e-mail no longer need to be entered manually.
Stock information at the time of order
Thanks to ERP integration, stock information is shared with the dealer during ordering, so they place orders knowing what is available.
Financial information sharing and online reconciliation
Share balance and invoice information with your dealers through the portal and handle reconciliation online.
Newsletters, announcements and surveys
Stay in regular contact with your dealers and collect feedback through newsletters, announcements and surveys.
Sales analytics
Evaluate dealer sales with analyses broken down by product group, sales region and sales period.
Quota management for sales representatives
Set quotas for your sales representatives in line with your sales targets and monitor progress through the portal.
Works with your ERP system
APIS Dealer Portal works bidirectionally with the ERP system you use:
- From ERP to portal: Stock, balance and invoice information is shared with your dealers; dealers see stock availability while ordering.
- From portal to ERP: Orders placed by your dealers through the portal are transferred to your ERP system.
Your dealers order with up-to-date information; your company works with the same data without re-entering orders.
Work faster and more transparently with your dealers
