To provide access to the PIM Web Item Editor functionality from the Supplier Portal, you need to configure special PIM system users on the PIM server. You need to create a PIM Supplier Portal administrator user for actions triggered by a portal administrator. You also need to create two Product 360 Supplier Portal system users for actions triggered by suppliers.
The
Supplier 360
administrator is a Product 360 Supplier Portal administrator user. This user must belong to a group that has all action rights. This user can call Product 360 APIs for the
Supplier 360
application.
Suppliers are Product 360 Supplier Portal system users. These users either have edit access or read-only access to the Supplier Portal. All supplier calls from the Portal to edit product catalogs use the credentials of the PIM system user with edit access. Similarly, all supplier calls with read-only permissions use the credentials of the PIM system user with read-only access.
