Electronically Exchange Supply Chain Data with 100% of Your Trading Partners Using ADX's Commerce Management Suite

Doing electronic commerce with a small number of large trading partners means that you are still doing paper-based commerce with a large number of smaller trading partners. Fax and mail-based supply chain processes are error-prone and costly; they weaken your supply chain strategy and diminish the return from system investments

Spark a supply chain reaction that lowers costs, improves productivity and maximizes return on system investments using ADX's comprehensive Commerce Management Suite.

The "Spark" is CommerceMail™. It integrates the "long tail" of your supply chain - all the occasional, seasonal, and non-technical trading partners that don't have the time or resources to support your big-band EDI program.

Expand the supply chain reaction to trading partners that have higher volumes or need better management controls with CommerceView™, an easy-to-use, highly efficient web-based portal designed to manage orders, invoice and improve overall buyer/supplier relationships.

Complete the supply-chain reaction with CommerceNet™ that maximizes the return on your ERP and supply chain management investments through system-to-system (S2S) integration with high-value, high volume strategic trading partners.

Why Commerce Management from ADX?

Managing the day-to-day challenges of hundreds, if not thousands, of supply partners and the unique business needs of critical customers can tax the resources of even the best of companies. Critical to the success of buyer/supplier relationships are the methods by which companies exchange business data and documents to and from their information systems. Accounting, ERP and supply chain systems all require accurate and timely data to achieve supply chain excellence. This means eliminating as much fax or paper-based business processes as possible.

Enabling the electronic exchange of data between trading partners is the answer; but doing so with only those trading partners that can afford to means that inefficiency and error-prone processes remain. Fax or paper driven manual processes add costs to your income statement and diminish the value of accounting, ERP and supply chain system investments. Overcoming these challenges requires a tailored supply chain strategy to meet the needs of large and small trading partners alike.

The ADX Commerce Management Suite of products was designed to address data exchange and supply chain integration with a company’s entire trading community; from the largest global enterprise to the smallest specialty shop and all the trading partners in between.

• CommerceNet™ enables system-to-system (S2S) integration with high-value, high-volume strategic trading partners. It exchanges supply chain data and documents directly to and from ERP, accounting and procurement management systems.
• CommerceView™ enables business-to-business (B2B) document exchange via a Web-based portal. It is designed to effectively manage commerce with large numbers of key suppliers, with which, buyers do high volumes of business, often exchanging hundreds or thousands of business documents monthly.
• CommerceMail™ enables a business-to-eMail (B2E) exchange of purchase orders with suppliers and returns documents such as PO Acknowledgements and e-Invoices directly back to the buyers originating business system. It is designed for occasional, seasonal and/or non-technical suppliers that are unable to comply with the electronic commerce programs of their customers due to costs or resource constraints.

The ADX Commerce Management Suite brings value to both sides of a trading partner relationship. Buying organizations execute with greater precision and speed their "procure-to-pay" supply chain processes while cost-effectively managing large numbers of suppliers. This improves and accelerates "order-to-cash" commerce processes for suppliers, assuring the reliable order fulfillment needed to improve customer satisfaction and receive timely, accurate payments.
