Connect with suppliers

So-called EDI connection to suppliers makes it easy to purchase goods for orders.

When the connection is in place, you just enter the order number when ordering and the articles are then pushed straight into the right order in the system using a so-called EDI connection.

In the list below, you can see which suppliers we currently offer connection to.

Is your supplier not on the list? Contact us and we will talk to the supplier. All major suppliers can be added, provided that the supplier offers so-called EDI connection.

If you instead import an article register, the supplier can be specified on the article. See how to specify the supplier on articles under point 10 HERE.

To add an EDI connection:

Step 1: Notify your salesperson at the respective supplier that you want to connect with “EDI” to us at serviceprotocol.com. Your salesperson then places an order for this and articles will automatically enter the order number you enter when ordering from the supplier.

Step 2:
  1. Log in with your admin account.
  2. Click on Add integration which you will find at the very bottom under Group settings.
  3. Select the provider you want to connect to in the list.
  4. Fill in the requested information, your customer number or organization number. When you have chosen integration, you will see which one is in demand for this particular supplier.
  5. Fill in an equation in the EXPRESSION field if you wish to set conditions for the price of articles from this particular supplier. The equation can, for example, be used to give different markups for different price levels.
    An EDI equation “stands above” general markups.

    Here’s an example: x*2+100
    This example takes the price times two plus 100.

    Decimals are written with a period, eg: 2.1
