Entering a Design Win or Loss (Distributor)

After the registration is approved, the distributor does detailed design work for the program, usually working with a design house.

If the OEM selects the supplier's component, the distributor enters a design win, indicating that they have successfully sold the supplier's components to the OEM.

If the OEM rejects the design, the distributor enters a design loss.

This task is part of Process of Distributor Selling Components to OEM.
