  3. What are electronic processeses? Example: ORDER No manual typewriting-> Electronic data interchange (EDI)

  4. Buy-Side Production Sell-Side Volume Market watch • All big companies (METRO, OBI, Daimler and more) force their suppliers to establish electronic processes due to cost reduction • Suppliers are in the need of serving these requirements (if they want or not)

  5. Potentials - Costs • Personel costs • Type writing (i.e. type in orders) • Handling (i.e. print invoice, envelope, etc.) • Freights • Prices – services needn‘t to be free of charge • Additional costs charged by the buyer (punishment) Volumeisimportant!

  6. Potentials - Quality • Fast • No manual type writing mismatch • Trace / Protocol • Automatic checks • Completeness (all required fields) • Duplicates • Reports / Statistics • Security Electronic processes increase quality

  7. Strategic view on EDI • EDI is getting more and more important • EDI is a service, not a naturalness • EDI needs own resources, employees have to care about it (Master data management, Monitoring) • EDI shows up weaknesses in own processes, own business gets transparent to the customer! • Benefit yourself from EDI: Do credit memo procedure with customers, integrate own suppliers • Honour EDI in commercial negotiations: i.e. discounts

  8. EDI causes logistic and technical challenges Strategies and goals of EDI • Integration of the own IT-systems for exchange of data with customers, suppliers, portals, manufacturers and partners • Wish for independency • Consulting and services also for your partners • Flexible connections to different systems and data formats • Cost reduction through efficient business flows • Security / Quality • Push from customers / services for customers • Optimize own procurement

  9. The solution: ET-Connector • Connection to arbitrary ERP-Systems possible (z.B. SAP ®, proAlpha ®, infor®, SQL-Business®, Navision®, and more) • Independent connection to partners, suppliers, manufacturers and portals with one software • Creation of all kinds of text formats, i.e. XML (and derivates), HTML, EDIFACT (and derivates, i.e. EANCOM), VDA, ANSI X.12, Freitextformate, and many more … • Supported protocols: FTP(S), HTTP(S), POP/SMTP, SOAP, EDIINT AS1 + AS2, X.400 • Unlimited to number of connections / message types • Platform independent (Windows®, Linux®, Solaris®) With ET-Connector all requirements to connections and conversions can be satisfied

  10. Only ET-Connector is needed to connect to different portals Solution 1: Connection to portals • Buying the portal software lead to dependencies to the supplier/buyer • Portal software is restricted to connecting to the portal or expensive to „unlock“ • Portal software is cost intensive (maintenance, customizing)
