eBusiness: Product Information Manager

Dear Valued Partner:

In early August 2018, the Product Information Manager will launch at the Exchange. Training information can be found on the “Doing Business with Exchange” web page and can be accessed here. On this page, you will find ‘How-To’ guides, Step by Step videos, as well as the GS1 category catalog which will form the foundation for the PIM hierarchy.

Several webinars are scheduled to provide our partners an opportunity to ask questions and for our team to assist with the transition. It is advised that you watch the videos on the web page in order to familiarize yourself with the tool prior to attending a webinar.

The Link below, for PIM Adobe Webinar Q&A in July, is only Available at the times listed. The seminar room can have up to 500 people log in per session and it will be first come first serve.
