The Manufacturer Entry General Tab

Users should create a manufacturer entry for each core child brand with the following selected:

• Identify the Cooper manufacturer entry as the parent company from the Parent Company drop-down
• Check the Merge Brands box for all brands that can be sent together in a single order
• The Flash specialization selected from the Specialization drop-down list

The Configure Flash Connection Direct Tab

1. Click Configure Specialization.

2. The Configure Flash Connection window will appear.

3. Click the button.

4. Select Cooper as the core brand, then click Ok.

5. Click Add Brand.

6. A new window will appear. Select the corresponding brand from the list, then click Ok. 

Note: some brands can have two or more brands mapped to a single manufacturer entry. For example, if users have created a manufacturer entry as Halo rather than one for Halo-Rec and one for Halo-Trac, then both Halo-Rec and Halo-Trac can be mapped to the Halo manufacturer entry. However, if users have already created individual manufacturer entries for Halo-Rec and Halo-Trac, they should be mapped to their respective brands in the mapping window.
