GLOBAL DATA SYNCHRONIZATION MAKES ITEM UPDATES EASY

DiSync allows you to work more effectively and accurately with your trading partners, synchronizing product information and ultimately driving increased sales and reduce delivery time–to–market. In today’s increasingly competitive business environment, ensuring accurate product information flow between trading partner and supplier is crucial. This can reduce the effort and cost of introducing and maintaining products, while playing a major role in generating the return on investment from business efficiency projects such as RFID and CPFR.

Both retailers and manufacturers are facing unnecessary costs due to master item data problems. These include supply chain information inefficiencies, inaccurate data in transactions, invoice errors, warehousing/transportation errors and product ordering errors, to name a few. By continuously synchronizing master item data, trading partners can verify items that are the same within both trading partners’ systems. DiCentral has collaborated with LANSA, a certified GS1 data pool solution partner, to fulfill the Global Commerce Initiative on Global Data Synchronization (GDS). The Global Data Synchronization Network allows efficient synchronization of data information, while driving costs out of your supply chain.

Together, DiCentral and LANSA offer hosted services with cost–effective compliance for customer data synchronization requirements. DiSync enables suppliers to continue utilizing DiCentral’s hosted EDI services while leveraging their existing infrastructure and still comply with Global Data Synchronization Network standards. Suppliers electronically synchronize product data with their trading partners to deliver a number of key benefits including:
