E-Commerce services

For companies considering Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) as part of an overall supply chain re-engineering effort, Univar can facilitate the implementation of EDI-based order management programmes. As an active member of CIDX (the group that sets EDI standards for the Chemical Industry) we helped pioneer the use of the material safety data sheets (MSDS) EDI transaction. 

Univar handles the EDI transactions customers need: purchase orders, purchase order changes and electronic invoices. Our experienced EDI specialists help our customers and trading partners implement these transactions and handle specialised EDI requests with ease. 

Our fully integrated, standards-based EDI system enables us to work with most of the major purchasing systems in the marketplace including SAP, Oracle, JD Edwards, PeopleSoft and Marcam. 

As a member of the Elemica network, we participate actively to make the transactional aspects of business easier and more economical through e-commerce solutions that reduce total supply chain costs, and eliminate duplicate technology investment for ordering and payment processes.
