Using the Digital Media Store: Managers

What is a DMS Managers and What can they do?

  • DMS Managers can manage the purchasing, budgets and products available to a DMS cost-center
  • A DMS cost-center will generally be a unit or department but may be another level of the organization
  • Purchasers generally:
    • Establish the business relationship between their group and the supplier
    • Track and review the order history of multiple users
    • Establish which templates will be available to members of their cost center
    • Do not order products themselves, although they may
  • Purchasers can:
    • Open a blanket PO to cover printing costs
    • Assign budgets or spending caps to purchasers
    • Designate purchasers and requisitioners
    • Generate reports on order history to insure accountability
    • Create and complete product orders

To set up a DMS account as a Manager:

  1. Determine whether your parent organization already has a DMS manager — the unit DMS manager will typically be the unit business manager or marketing/communications director
  2. If your unit or department does not have a DMS manager, you may contact Allegra Print and imaging directly at 609-771-4000 to set up an account as a DMS manager
