m.b2b online portal
The m.b2b online portal provides efficient communication for companies with information systems that do not contain EDI functionality and only require infrequent transactions with business partners. The m.b2b online portal makes it possible to buy and sell and to let your business partners, rather than your employees, handle the records.
With the m.b2b online portal, you get:
- Time savings for your sales and purchasing officers
- A new sales channel to approach a broader group of customers without increasing your sales costs
- Control over deliveries from suppliers and insight into material in transit which leads to reductions in inventory
- Time savings for warehouse personnel when receiving material by the ability to scan full pallets and automate receipt of their content
Portal features (Sales):
- Customer records that can be sub-divided into regions
- Communication with customers in their own language
- Goods can be promoted according to the target regions
- Products can be published on the portal by simply ticking the item in the information system
- Photos and graphics of products can be simply uploaded
- Selling prices are based on the pricing structure data in the information system, including any individual rates, reductions, quantity discounts etc.
- Goods are ordered by simply placing them in the shopping cart. The portal informs the customer about any discounts and promotions and, optionally, about inventory levels
- Once placed, the order is immediately available in the information system, which then plans production and manages shipping
- Order confirmation and shipping information is automatically generated and sent to the customer by email
Portal features (Purchasing):
- • A material supply agreement can be signed with a regular supplier through your portal, including the provision of any required credentials
- • Supplier employee sign-in is managed by the portal
- • Materials are automatically ordered by your information system from selected suppliers via the portal which also publishes your purchase orders, as well as any supplier schedules and call-offs
- The supplier enters the shipped quantity via the portal, including packaging information about boxes and pallets. The portal then prints barcode labels for identification
- Purchasers have complete visibility of materials in transit
- Warehouse personnel only need scan the pallet labels upon receipt of the order as the information system already knows their content from the portal
