Digital document exchange in the building materials industry

 - 
The exchange of documents such as orders, delivery bills and invoices is essential in the building materials industry. With XD Cloud Supplier, this exchange is digitized, standardized and automated - for more speed, transparency and less effort.

Many companies in the building materials industry work with paper-based or partially digitized processes. Business documents and receipts are often created manually, sent by email and then manually re-entered into systems. Especially in complex projects with several partial deliveries, this can quickly lead to discrepancies in ordering, delivery and invoicing.

An example: A building materials manufacturer regularly supplies materials such as cement, mortar and insulation materials to a wholesaler, who then distributes them to regional tradesmen. In the previous process, the orders were created manually by the wholesaler, entered by the manufacturer, then dispatched and later checked again for invoicing.

With XD Cloud Supplier, these documents are exchanged digitally and in a standardized format. The cloud solution acts as a central location where all documents are processed automatically, archived and can be viewed manually if required. The receipts undergo an automated check for completeness and consistency so that deviations are detected at an early stage. This creates a continuous, transparent process without media disruptions - from order to payment.

 

By using the cloud solution, processing times and error rates are reduced, administrative effort is lowered and data quality is improved. All parties involved benefit from a standardized, structured exchange format and a simple connection without complex interface projects. Manufacturers and wholesalers in the building materials industry thus create the basis for efficient digital processes in document management.
