Reorder? Price change? Promotion? • Buyers send information to stores on overall sales for the chain, how to display merchandise, upcoming promotions
1. Making information flow • Flow 3 (Buyer to Manufacturer): • The purchase information from each store is aggregated by the retailer, who creates an order for new merchandise and sends it to the manufacturer • The buyer also communicates with the manufacturer about other issues: shipping dates, promotions, prices, etc. • Flow 4 (Store to Manufacturer): • In some situations, the sales transaction data are sent directly from the store to the manufacturer, and the manufacturer decides when to ship more merchandise • In other situations, the ordering process is done automatically, bypassing the buyers

1. Making information flow • Flow 6 (Manufacturer to Distribution Center and Buyer): • When the manufacturer ships the merchandise to the distribution center, it sends an advance shipping notice (ASN). This is an electronic document sent by the supplier to the retailer in advance of a shipment to tell the retailer exactly what to expect in the shipment • The distribution center makes appointments for trucks to make the delivery • When shipment is received at the distribution center, the buyer is notified and authorizes payment to the vendor
