WALMART KEY SYSTEMS SILVER SUITE
In just 3 days, you’ll be up and running and will avoid expensive (and embarrassing) errors often made by Retail Link® beginners and those using outdated information.
Save $195 when you purchase the suite instead of individual classes.
Immerse yourself in Walmart’s key systems, including Luminate™, Retail Link®, and Supplier One. These are Walmart’s online hubs of data, documentation, reports, and special applications, and knowing them is fundamental when working with Walmart.
Learning on your own can be slow and difficult. Instead, turn to teachers with decades of experience with Walmart who will guide you through each system, show you how to build and interpret reports, answer your questions, and provide guidance about Walmart’s expectations and requirements.
Who should take this training:
If you’re new to Walmart or in need of a complete refresh with Walmart systems so that you are current and ready for growth.
