Additional Product Information
Poet eSupplierLink(tm) is a supplier-centered software solution that enables the creation, maintenance, and distribution of customized eCatalogs. It systematizes data conversion and provides an intuitive, browser-based interface for all catalog management tasks.;At the heart of eSupplierLink is a data repository that serves as a master catalog. eSupplierLink collects data extracted from any supplier source - ERP applications, relational databases, flat files, Web stores - and then prepares the data for buyers? consumption. Acronyms may be replaced, abbreviations expanded, and useful information such as multimedia files and commodity codes added. These changes are isolated from their original source to prevent disruption of ongoing business processes.;eSupplierLink generates customized, realtime versions of the master catalog by interpreting stored buyer profiles. These profiles, which may be developed from existing databases, describe everything from required data formats and classification systems to negotiated pricing structures. eSupplierLink can provide full catalogs on demand, incremental catalogs at predetermined intervals, or automatic catalog updates. It can also direct catalogs to any specified location, whether it?s at the supplier?s site, the buyer?s site, a third-party aggregator?s site, or an eMarketplace.;Poet eSupplierLink? is written in Java.
