Catalog Management Features

WHY IS FAST & EASY COLLABORATION WITH SUPPLIERS VALUABLE?

Fast and simple collaboration is particularly valuable in the administrative area of catalog management, so that data is always up-to-date and effort is minimized.

WHAT IS SPECIAL ABOUT BENEERING CATALOG MANAGEMENT?

BeNeering’s catalog management is an ideal combination of high automation and high service level.

HOW IS THE HIGH LEVEL OF AUTOMATION ACHIEVED?

  • Simplified catalog and content management with automatic provision of catalog articles and forms in the purchasing system.
  • Replacement of punch-out mechanisms by indexing web store content in the BeNeering Cloud Search Engine.
  • Automated interfaces for suppliers to provide catalog data.
  • Reduction of operating costs, as catalog content is stored centrally in the BeNeering Cloud and replication of catalog data in the purchasing system (e.g. SAP SRM with SAP TREX) is no longer necessary.

HOW IS THE HIGH SERVICE LEVEL ACHIEVED?

  • The BeNeering Cloud Support Team takes care of supplier onboarding from the first invitation to the platform to the technical implementation of the catalogs in the cloud.
  • Your punch-out catalogs are managed by BeNeering, i.e. we also handle the mapping to the external web stores.
  • A successful training concept offers both buyers and suppliers the opportunity to familiarize themselves with the necessary functions.
  • Our SLAs are tailored to the needs of our customers, but also ensure the availability of the cloud on a 24×365 basis.

WHAT ADDED VALUE DOES THIS PROVIDE FOR USERS?

  • Provision of catalogs in the cloud
  • Simplified collaboration between purchasing and suppliers
  • Catalog files (Excel, CSV, BMEcat) with validation and conversion rules to ensure compatibility with the purchasing system
  • Catalog versioning, item-based approval, classification systems, mapping rules
  • Integration of cloud forms (Dynamic Web Forms) into the purchasing process
