MAXIMISE YOUR PRODUCTIVITY WITH OUR PRODUCT ARTICLE MASTER SERVICES
Würth Business Services handles all the Article Data Management operations related to the Product Article Master Department. From Transcoding to Document Management, we handle all the processes for maintaining the accurate and standardised article data through SAP system. Our Team streamlines all the processes related to managing article data, utilises the advanced tools and software, and efficiently manages and maintains the article data.
ARTICLE CREATION
Once Transcoding is carried out successfully and duplicate articles are not found, the system creates new articles. As Article Creation service providers, we collect and prepare the data containing technical specifications, product description, and other major attributes of the article. We enter the data in SAP system under the newly-created article. With Article Creation in SAP, you can avoid further data duplication and ensure standardisation.
TRANSCODING
In this process, we identify Würth articles based on the product description and details such as materials used, specifications, and others. On the basis of Request for Quotation (RFQ) sent by customers, the system checks if the similar articles already exist. You can outsource transcoding service to avoid creating duplicate articles. Furthermore, this service accelerates the Article Data Management process.
MAINTAINING ARTICLE ATTRIBUTES
In this process, we check the incorrect or missing attributes of the articles in SAP system. Once those attributes are identified, we update the correct and missing attributes based on article description and norms such as DIN EN ISO 9001. Maintaining Article Attributes help you in ensuring that the accurate and complete information is inserted for the further use.
DOCUMENT MANAGEMENT
After successfully creating new articles and entering the correct attributes, we upload the supporting documents such as drawings, specification sheets, technical data sheets, and others. As Document Management services provider, we review and update the uploaded documents regularly. This service helps in availing all the articles and supporting documents at one place for future reference.
PRODUCT HIERARCHY
In this process, we update and assign the articles to the correct hierarchy levels based on the article descriptions and norms such as DIN EN ISO 9001 in SAP system. Then the system provides a specific name those articles that have a dummy name and assigns them to its parent group. Our service, Product Hierarchy creation in SAP, helps in assigning articles to the correct Würth Group hierarchy.
STANDARDIZATION
In this process, we carry out a thorough analysis of the article portfolio of customers. Furthermore, we replace the special articles with the standard article range. If there are any special articles, we find the equivalent standard articles for them to minimise the inventory levels. This process, Standardization in Product Article Management, also facilitates the supply chain management as there are only standardised and a minimum number of articles.
WEB-SHOP DATA MAINTENANCE
In this process, we compare the article data (title, picture, product description, and others) mentioned in a catalogue sent by the customers with the website data. After checking extensively, we provide remarks if there are any discrepancies. This process helps in keeping the data up-to-date for a customer friendly user experience.
