Maximum control over incoming goods and traceability

In food production, the process begins before the raw materials, packaging, or commercial products arrive. With EDI Purchasing in FOBIS, purchasing-related messages are sent and received digitally. Deliveries can be processed even faster using DESADV messages and SSCC scanning.

What is EDI Purchasing in FOBIS used for?

  • Sending EDI purchasing messages to suppliers.

  • Receiving DESADV messages ( delivery information) linked to the purchase order.

  • Processing SSCC data, which automatically records the item, quantity, and traceability information.

How FOBIS automates the EDI Purchasing workflow

The process begins as soon as a purchase order is sent electronically to your supplier, which immediately prevents misunderstandings about volumes or delivery times. Upon receipt, warehouse staff can easily scan the SSCC codes. FOBIS immediately processes all associated item, quantity, and traceability data. Even complex recurring goods flows are processed error-free.

  • Digital purchase orders: Electronic order exchange prevents errors in quantities, items, and delivery times.

  • Advance insight (DESADV): Automatic linking of digital shipping notifications to purchase orders for tight scheduling.

  • Error-free SSCC scanning: Automatic registration of items, volumes, and traceability data directly at the gate with a single scan.

  • Streamlined call-off orders: Fast , automated processing of recurring deliveries and large flows of goods.
