Manufacturer Ability to Map Vendor Resource Files to Series

How it works: Create resource – enter label, tag, and series. Series presents manufacturer product lines. An admin can limit a product line catalog file only to dealers authorized to place orders with that product line.

Why it matters: Sometimes manufacturers can decide that not all product lines should be available to all dealers. In such a case, new catalogs and lines are released only to a subset of dealers, and the product lines catalog and other resources should not be available to those dealers.
