ZUGSEIL P2P Hub
The more the inter-company processes are digitalized, the more value is generated for the customer and the supplier side!
Since 2016 in an ideal world, all business participants can have their own b-op digital and are fully and digitally integrated at no cost. But the Procure-To-Pay (P2P) process chain has been around way before 2016 and has been target for digitalization for long time. As a result of this legacy software exists for this process chain, each with a lot of customers which can not just switch to a b-op based system at once, but must ways to at least partially use the benefits instead before a migration project can start. For exactly this purpose we have developed the ZUGSEIL P2P Hub. The ZUGSEIL P2P Hub enables users to interact with not b-op based parties by leveraging legacy systems and technologies.
The P2P Hub Coreservice is covering these 4 basic integration paths and mixtures of them:
- Supplier's b-op digital to customer's 3rd party product (Integration path SDC3) - see details here ...
- Supplier's b-op digital to supplier's 3rd party product (Integration path SDS3) - see details here ...
- Customer's b-op digital to supplier's 3rd party product (Integration path CDS3) - see details here ...
- Customer's b-op digital to customer's 3rd party product (Integration path CDC3) - see details here ...
These integrations are coming along with common plugins, which allow connectivity to stand-systems with very small effort of plugin-configuration. If any of the 3rd party solutions are not on our standard list, you can create customized plugins through our project partners.
B-Op Api
If you dont want to work with our P2P Hub product and want to do the integration by your own developers you have the option to subscribe to the b-op Api, which allows you a broader way to implement integrations allowing deeper and more sophisticated forms of integration.
Components
- ZUGSEIL Catalog Publishing Manager (CPM) - The main tool to create and publish catalogs.
- ZUGSEIL Supplier Catalog Monitor (SCM) - The main tool to see, analyze the impact and adopt catalog changes proposed by suppliers.
- ZUGSEIL Product Classification Manager (PCM) - The main tool to map classification structures onto each other
- ZUGSEIL P2P Supplier Integration (P2P-SI) - The tool to defines per supplier, how to integrate. It allows the configuration of the trust relations and in case of legacy integration allows which legacy interfaces/transport mechanisms to use.
- ZUGSEIL P2P Customer Integration (P2P-CI) - The tool to defines per customer, how to integrate. It allows the configuration of the trust relations and in case of legacy integration allows which legacy interfaces/transport mechanisms to use.
