Certain businesses require a multitude of similar products with slightly different specifications to meet the needs of their workforce or their consumers. Matrix ordering allows your clients to see complete product availability across a full range of products seamlessly. For example, different options such as size and colour can be displayed for products such as clothes.Â
By providing a chain or connected product information, TrueCommerce eCommerce customers can select multiple products from a range without having to log separate transactions.Â
Below, we have listed some of the benefits of Matrix Ordering:Â
- Enhanced Collaboration and Communication: EDI facilitates seamless information exchange between retailers and suppliers, allowing for the timely and accurate sharing of product catalogues, pricing updates, and order changes.  Â
- Improved Communication: Improved communication fosters stronger partnerships and smoother business transactions, eliminating many traditional barriers to effective collaboration. Â
- Real-time Insights: Real-time inventory management technology provides insights into inventory levels and movements. Through EDI-enabled Advance Shipping Notices (ASNs), retailers can receive accurate and timely updates on stock levels, product availability, and delivery schedules.  Â
