Setting Up DMS Connect for MarketplaceDirect

KB Article #4501

With DMS Connect, dealers can create a quote in their Dealer Management System (DMS) directly from a retail order in MarketplaceDirect. In order to import pricing and part availability into a MarketplaceDirect order and to create a quote in your DMS, DMS Connect must be configured with the following information:

  • DMS Counter Person ID: A sales person's ID in their DMS that identifies who created the quote.
  • Default DMS Customer Number: An ID for a generic account in your DMS configured for retail buyers.

The following tasks must be performed by a user that has administrator-level OEC login credentials.
