Third-party vendor product deployments allow you to track actual implementations of a given product by units within your overall organization.
Why Use Third-Party Vendor Product Deployments?
Product deployments provide a way to link a given product to a specific unit, independent of an assessment. This may be especially helpful if multiple units want to use the product without having to run their own separate assessment.
In addition to allowing you to keep track of which units are using the product, deployments also support contacts. The contacts fields are used to store information about one or more people who can be considered the “go-to” person about a given product or implementation of a product.
In the new UI, whenever you create a new third-party vendor product assessment, during the intake step, you will have to either select an existing deployment for the product or create a new one.
