The concept of online ordering via the internet has been
implemented with the different capabilities of software solutions for the window
industry and the glass industry in mind.
To make the user experience as seamless as possible we are maintaining neutral
EDI-Articles which will be mapped to client specific articles. Furthermore we
implemented an algorithm to map the variety of geometrical formats used on the
client side to the correct shape catalogue number the supplier needs. (e.g. A+W,
HANIC, LISEC) This algorithm includes a consistency check which re-calculates
the drilling position for the CAV if necessary.
In addition we implemented a general production feasibility check. This procedure also
finds the correct coating side for insulated glass. As you can see, we did go
the extra mile to compensate inconsistent input data and the result of all this
effort is the extremely high rate of automatically importable orders without any
post-processing on the supplier side.
Additional features for both clients and suppliers have been implemented to meet
different needs. EDI-Server is capable of separating orders by respecting
individual work step criteria. It is also possible to sort the order items
based on criteria the client defines, to optimize the handling of delivered
orders either at the shipping department or the incoming goods department.
As a special service glas online offers all participants with
an existing import or export interface: Existing export interfaces in the
software solution of clients will get implemented on the EDI-Server
free of charge. In addition glas online generates the export
interfaces of incoming orders for the supplier side free of charge.
glas online is your partner if you are looking for a cost and
time efficient solution to benefit from sending or receiving orders via the
internet
