3. What it does The Seco Ordering Project will enable us to take orders from any SecoPoint device and input these orders directly into different ERP systems.

4. How it works • Order is created on customers Port Site using templates 82 and 81 for consignment and non-consignment orders. • SecoPoint device generates an order based on Max/Min levels. • Order is sent via email to a “Bridge” system in XML form. • The “Bridge” system will send on order to ERP system and order is placed with Seco Tools or other supplier.

5. How it works • Templates 81 and 82 will need to be modified for each individual customer. These details need to be changed to suit each subsidiary/customer. The template will be on your own computer.

6. How it works • From the Admin page on a Port Site you must create a new order. Click on ‘Order Setup’. • Next click ‘Setup a New Order’.

7. How it works • Order is setup as a standard order except in the ‘Order Type’ field. • Select the XML order from the list.

8. How it works • From the template drop-down list select ‘Upload template…’ This will open a new window. • Give the template a name and browse your computer for the modified template you wish to use. DO NOT tick global template as you have given this template a customer and subsidiary number.

9. How it works • Save the new order when you have completed it. • On the specified date and time an XML file will be sent to the “Bridge” system. • The XML file will contain the re-order information from the SecoPoint device including Customer info, Transaction info, Product info and Device info. • The re-ordering process for this customer will now be automated within Seco.* *See Limitations

10. Information Sent Customer Information • Customer Name • Customer Number • Subsidiary Number • Consignment Stock (Yes/No) • Purchase Order Date • Purchase Order Number (If ‘Blanket’ or ‘Rolling’ number is in use) • Release Number (SupplyPro number for each order – increments in 1’s)

12. Information Sent Product Information • Product Name • Part Number • Product Description • Stock Number • Purchase Price • Unit of Purchase (EA = Each, BX = Box) • Unit of Issue (EA = Each, BX = Box) • QIPUP (Quantity issued per unit of purchase) • Convenience Multiple (Batch size) • Vendor Name

13. Information Sent Device Information • Device Name • Device Type • Device Description

14. Limitations • Major limitation to the project is that the system can only handle blanket, rolling or no order number. • If the customer requires their own specific order number for each order from the SecoPoint Device human intervention is required.

15. Advantages • Converting customers orders to XML orders will free up time for Sales Administration personnel. • Sales Administrators will no longer have to intervene with orders by contacting customers for Purchase Order Numbers.

16. Other information available • Because of the ‘Transaction Type’ field we can also send consumption information directly into customers business systems.* • Re-order information can simultaneously be sent to customers business systems.* • Looking further ahead, re-stock information can also be sent to customers business systems helping to close the ordering loop.* *Will require integration at customer
