Explaining Multi-Tier Collaboration

Multi-Tier Collaboration enables you to collaborate with multiple trading partners, across multiple processes, systems, and geographies, in real time.

It contributes to transparency by copying Purchase Orders, Order Confirmations, and Advance Ship Notices to multiple suppliers.
