Question #: 22
Topic #: 1
[All Manufacturing Cloud Professional Questions]

A manufacturing company makes parts designed to go into finished goods (like a cell phone). However, the company sells to distributors and contract manufacturers who make the phone for the phone brand company. The manufacturing company is not the only approved supplier of the part.

Which feature of Manufacturing Cloud should the manufacturing company utilize to help with future opportunity planning?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: C

Program Based Business is a feature of Manufacturing Cloud that allows you to track and manage the demand from your end customers (such as phone brands) and the supply from your channel partners (such as distributors or contract manufacturers). You can create programs for each end customer and associate them with sales agreements or opportunities. You can also assign program lines to each product or part that you sell to the end customer and specify the expected quantity and revenue. Program Based Business helps you to forecast the demand from the end customer and compare it with the actual orders from the channel partners. You can also monitor the performance of your channel partners and identify any gaps or risks in fulfilling the end customer demand.Reference:[Program Based Business Overview], [Create Programs]
