Managing Vending Manager Accounts

Vending Manager accounts define the Vending Managers to which the Catalog Manager publishes content. Because a single Catalog Manager can serve multiple Vending Managers, you can have many Vending Manager accounts.

Each Vending Manager account must be assigned to one or more vending plans. Vending Managers are generally configured to serve separate enterprises, so each account generally has a specific Vending Plan. Before you begin creating a Vending Manager account, you might want to create the vending plan that you want to assign to the account. You can assign accounts to the default vending plan and edit the account later.

For information on vending plans, see “Managing Vending Plans” on page 107.
