Association solutions for efficient cooperation between suppliers and association members

Commercial groups and centre regulation agents are a natural hub for the exchange of data between suppliers and association members. Different IT systems prevent electronic data exchange and stand in the way of the optimisation of business processes between the connected business partners.

• The association head office, which connects members and suppliers via a single interface to the EDI clearing centre from e-integration.
• e-integration takes on the distribution of data within the entire group on behalf of the association head office.
• e-integration archives invoice data if required, for the association head office and/or affiliates.

• Speedy and extensive EDI connection of all affiliates and contract suppliers.
• 100% EDI rate enables the highest process cost savings.
• Error-free delivery of data between all those involved in the process.
• No investment in hard and software for the association head office and affiliates.
• Complete changing of fixed costs to variable costs makes this solution especially economic.
• e-integration takes on complex coordination between all those involved in the roll-out. The setting up of an integrated association solution without disruption to daily business and without using additional capacities is achieved in the shortest time.

• The association head office, members and suppliers automate data exchange without altering their existing interfaces, today and in the future.
• e-integration supports all standards in the sector, and communication paths.
• Alternative data exchange for the "EDI-reluctant" business partners by using the e-integration product portfolio (E-mail, WebEDI, fax and even letter) and conversion of this data for EDI-processing.
• On request a data base to assess sales and turnover on an item level can be prepared.
• Electronic exchange of invoices is carried out in accordance with German §14 VAT law and therefore meets legal requirements.
