RSM’s advanced Trade Promotions Management (TPM) solution enhances the features of the Trade Allowance Management module within Microsoft Dynamics 365. It is an incredibly powerful tool that was specifically designed for manufacturers to address the serious business problems related to trade spending. With TPM, organizations not only reap the benefits of core Dynamics 365 functionality, they are empowered with enhanced capabilities such as indirect bill backs, enhanced fund management, and key data analytics that link promotions management to demand forecasting.

TPM provides complete visibility and control for manufactures to handle everything from analysis, funding and planning, to execution and claim processing. Additionally, TPM completely integrates pricing, order processing and financials throughout the enterprise.

Features of Advanced Trade Promotions Management:

Indirect Bill Backs - Effectively create and maintain promotions at the distributor level that are linked to end customers within Dynamics 365.
