Step 1. Supplier Registration

A self-service Supplier Registration is key to rolling out to a large number of Suppliers.

All fields including telephone numbers and email addresses are validated to ensure accuracy of information.

And it is not just about registration, periodically a pop-up is presented to the user asking for verification of key information to make sure the information on hand does not get obsolete.

Also if users have not logged in for a specific amount of time they can be optionally deleted to make sure that users who have left the company do not maintain their logins.

Step 2. Master Data Management (MDM)

MDM is a technology-enabled business discipline in which business and IT organizations work together to ensure the uniformity, accuracy, stewardship, semantic consistency and accountability of the organization's official, shared master data assets.

For a Supplier portal to work properly, it is essential for your company to have an accurate data interaction with your suppliers. Endoxa provides the tools to facilitate this interchange.

• The Supplier Portal can be used to update your article master data
• A Master Data Alignment (MDA) is a check that is performed periodically, to confirm that each Suppliers system is correctly ‘synced’ with the Supplier Portal
• It ensures the information displayed is up-to-date as well as consistent, which is vital for smooth supply chain operation
• This maintenance also ensures:
  • Accuracy
  • No time delay
  • Reduced claims
  • Improved strike rate
  • Improved process of receiving (back door)
  • Debit and credit adjustments will be minimise / reduced
