A well thought-out multi-catalog management system enables the efficient buying of direct and indirect goods. gate2b-net ensures the conversion and validation of electronic data and supports customer specific workflows where necessary (e.g. approval and test processes). Specifications (e.g. drawings, descriptions, etc.) for direct goods may be supplied on request with the order and indirect goods and services (C-parts) ordered via the shop are automatically recorded in the ERP system. For gate2b-net participants without an interface, a web-based interface (WebEDI) is available for generating E-documents (e.g. order confirmation, dispatch notification, etc.).
