[FIXED] Dependency not appearing in dependency tree but there in pom

Issue

mvn dependency:tree produces an output that doesn't contain
The pom.xml has the following explicit dependency:

<dependency>
    <groupId>com.fasterxml.jackson.core</groupId>
    <artifactId>jackson-databind</artifactId>
    <version>2.12.6</version>
</dependency>

But when I run mvn dependency:tree in the project, the output doesn't contain jackson-databind dependency.
Could this be because of a parent pom included at the top :

<parent>
    <groupId>net.xyz.spark</groupId>
    <artifactId>parent-pom</artifactId>
    <version>2.12.6</version>
<relativePath/>
</parent>
  

But I checked the parent pom, and there is no dependency tag. Only the plugins

What could be the reason for this?

Solution

This is probably because the dependency is inside <dependencyManagement>.
