UConnect 08

DiCentral recently attended the UConnect Conference held in Dallas, Texas, June 9-11. GS1 US and VICS hosted 1100 attendees and numerous exhibitors at this elaborate show. Several sessions were held at the conference, providing insight into various issues such as trading partner collaboration and global supply chain visibility and efficiency.

The UConnect Conference was a productive event for DiCentral. As an exhibitor, DiCentral demonstrated our expertise in EDI supply chain collaboration with advanced end-to-end SaaS solutions. We also networked with our peers and exchanged information, ideas, and trend updates relevant to the industry.

DiCentral wasn’t all business though. At the conference, we held a drawing for a Sony Portable DVD Player and are pleased to announce Ping Hsu of Foster Farms as the winner. Congratulations Ms. Hsu.

Case Study: Winplus Improves Business Processes with DiCentral’s Leading Edge EDI Technology

With offices in Europe, North America, Asia, Australia, and New Zealand, Winplus is one of the fastest growing marketers and wholesalers of auto lifestyle products in its industry.

The Challenge: Old EDI Model was Inefficient

Winplus North America invested in a combined solution of EDI translator software, a third party middleware, and a prominent mid tier ERP software. From the start, customer support was separated among the solution providers; consistent customer service was hard to come by. The integration itself had many steps and was not totally automated. It lacked seamless integration and only covered half of the transaction types needed. In addition, the solution was not user-friendly, and it provided limited data visibility.

“Data was not easily accessible,” said Brooke Kosmal of Winplus. “There was limited access to trading partner data in the old system.”

The Solution: DiIntegrator provides seamless EDI integration to SAP Business One

DiCentral installed DiIntegrator Multi-User for SAP Business One with Dynamic Inventory Update. The superior technology and greater visibility of DiCentral’s solution enables a deeper level of customer support for Winplus. At the same time, support is simplified due to an integrated technology platform. This SAP Certified Solution provides seamless integration which minimizes errors, while providing structure and control to the Winplus EDI order fulfillment process.

DiIntegrator is a single source EDI solution installed locally yet managed by DiCentral’s internet infrastructure. When this design is combined with DiCentral’s knowledge of SAP Business One it provides a seamless path for data to your application.

DiIntegrator comes with natural workflow designed into the interface to let the user follow simple steps from start to finish of the EDI process. Each retailer’s EDI rules are built into the DiIntegrator interface for accurate creation of Invoices, ASNs, and UCC128 labels. DiCentral’s unique architecture allows DiCentral to easily maintain maps to many retail customers. In addition, DiCentral’s web interface, DiWeb, provides an incredible level of visibility into the inbound/outbound data process.

“We now have the ability to see all inbound and outbound line item data, as well as whether it was sent/received successfully,” said Ms. Kosmal.

Mike Neadeau, vice president of sales for DiCentral, comments, “DiIntegrator is a ready-made solution for growing companies that would rather dedicate resources to improving their overall business than running complex EDI solutions in-house.”
