◾️ Increasing importance of ensuring transparency in partner transactions following the publication of guidelines
Following recent accounting fraud cases during initial public offerings, the Japan Securities Dealers Association (JSDA) published "Guidelines on Underwriting Examinations based on Accounting Fraud Cases during Initial Public Offerings" in March 2026. These guidelines emphasize the importance of verifying the actual status of suppliers and sales destinations, and direct verification where necessary, especially when the transaction ratio through agencies is high. In response to these trends, the demand for ensuring transparency in partner transactions has further increased from the perspectives of IPO examinations, audits, and internal controls.

While partner business is an effective growth strategy for expanding sales channels and developing markets, it often involves multiple stakeholders between the company and the end-user, making it challenging to grasp the actual status of sales destinations, deal progress, and update histories. Particularly, as the sales ratio via partners increases, the importance of daily understanding and recording who is involved, through what distribution channels, and which deals are progressing becomes higher. PartnerProp provides functions to support "understanding the actual situation" and "managing audit trails" of transactions via partners, such as visualizing sales destination information and detecting deal collisions. We have now newly added "Partner Operation History."
◾️ Key functions supporting transactional transparency
"PartnerProp" supports the visualization of sales destinations, management of progress and change histories, and identification of deal overlaps in partner transactions on a single platform. This promotes the securing of transactional transparency required for IPO examinations, audits, and internal controls, and also contributes to improving the accuracy of daily deal operations. The newly added "Partner Operation History" feature makes it easier to understand who performed what operation and when.
・Visualization of sales destination information
By inputting and accumulating end-user information during deal registration, manufacturers can more easily grasp sales destination information via partners. This makes it easier to verify the actual status of sales destinations even in transactions through partners, leading to improved accuracy in deal management.
・Transaction process history management
By recording and accumulating deal update histories and changes, it becomes easier to confirm who made what updates and when. This supports audit trail management required for audits and internal controls, and also contributes to improving the transparency of transaction processes. Furthermore, the newly added "Partner Operation History" feature makes it easier to grasp partner operation details, further strengthening history management.
・Detection of deal collisions
By detecting duplicate registrations for the same end-user, it becomes easier to identify competition among deals or signs of unusual transactions. This not only prevents confusion caused by overlapping deals between partners but also leads to improved visibility and management accuracy of transaction statuses.
◾️ Customer Voice in Practice
・Mr. Koyo Suyama, Manager, Partner Success Department, Sales Headquarters, Business Group, SpiderPlus Inc.
At our company, ensuring compliance with unique transaction guidelines (such as restrictions on sales to existing customers) and visualizing sales destination information on a server-unit basis is essential for promoting sound business with our sales partners.
"PartnerProp"'s "Sales Destination Visualization / Deal Collision Detection" allows us to understand if our guidelines are functioning appropriately. In addition, the lead status and activity status of partners who work closely with customers from negotiation to order reception and implementation support are also visualized through the deal management function, leading to improved productivity.
This new feature will further strengthen "audit trail management" and "sales process optimization." It will lead to strengthening our governance through ensuring transparency and serving as a foundation to maximize the performance of partner businesses.
