ELBRIDGE is a standard developed by ETIM Germany to connect wholesale shops to the product configurators of the industry. The interface technically standardizes the product selection process. As "ETIM Staff Office Digital Interfaces" ITEK is in charge of the development and distribution of the standard.
With version ELBRIDGE 1.0 the following scenario is supported for the configuration process:
The craftsman is registered in the wholesale shop.
A configurator of the industry is accessed from the shop.
If necessary, an additional registration of the craftsman takes place at the configurator of the industry.
The craftsman carries out the configuration.
After completion of the configuration, a redirection to the shop of the wholesaler takes place, whereby the configuration results are also transferred (parts lists or references)
The craftsman can then continue working in the wholesale shop (e.g. add more items to the order) and place the order.
From 01.07.2020 a second scenario will be added with the version ELBRIDGE 2.0:
The craftsman accesses the configurator via the industry website.
The craftsman carries out the configuration.
The results of the configuration are anonymously transferred to a central "interface".
Via the interface, the craftsman selects the desired wholesaler and registers there.
The configuration results are transferred to the wholesale shop and the order can be further processed.
The following types of industry configurations are supported
Standard articles
Composition of standard articles: The result of the configuration is a parts list of articles that can be ordered automatically by number
Customization
Customization of standard articles (e.g. products in special colors or with special printing): The result of the configuration is a standard article and a reference to a stored configuration in the industry
Special requirements
Special fabrication according to dimensions or special designs: The result of the configuration is a reference to a stored configuration in the industry
Internationality
Indicators for country and language are contained in the views of the configurators, data content currency in the data structures
Data content
The data contents of the interface were limited to insensitive (public) contents
