Save time and money with EDI

From ordering to paying: electronic data interchange with Hansgrohe

There are clear benefits to using EDI (electronic data interchange), as EDI means transferring information such as orders or despatch notifications from system to system, without manual processing. This is why Hansgrohe has adopted this system. We also offer our customers the option to work with us via EDI.

Use EDI with Hansgrohe and make processes more efficient  

Working with Hansgrohe via electronic data interchange (EDI) is worthwhile. Business documents can be automatically transferred from one IT system to another, without people needing to intervene. There are many benefits to this, and they boil down to a noticeable reduction in costs: 

  • Speeds up processing/handling: faster transferring/processing in the automated data exchange between IT systems
  • Improves data quality: Error sources are reduced and multiple entries are avoided 
  • Saves paper: Documents are exchanged electronically
  • Innovative use of resources: Manual input no longer required; this time can be put to other uses

Hansgrohe uses the following message types:
  • ORDERS orders
  • ORDRSP order confirmation
  • INVRPT inventory stock report
  • DESADV dispatch notifications
  • INVOIC billing
  • REMADV payment advice
