Take advantage of
Advance Shipping Notices
Netix Flow empowers businesses to incorporate Advanced Shipping Notices (ASNs) whenever needed, making it a comprehensive and cost-effective solution for managing your supply chain operations. ASNs provide detailed information about the contents of a shipment, enabling you to accurately plan and allocate resources, reduce lead times, and enhance overall supply chain visibility and efficiency. Here are just some of the benefits of incorporating ASNs through Netix Flow:
- Obtain comprehensive information about the contents, quantities, and specifications of incoming shipments for better resource planning and efficient allocation.
- Proactively track and manage incoming shipments for reduced lead times and advanced visibility into expected delivery dates, quantities, and any potential delays.
- By providing accurate and timely ASNs, you can expedite the payment process as retailers can match the received goods with the corresponding ASN and invoice more efficiently.
How we integrate Netix Flow with NetSuite
Analyse business processes
The first step in any EDI integration project is to analyse the existing processes and determine how EDI can be used to automate and streamline these. Cegedim e-business will equip you with a detailed plan outlining their process including a clear scope of the work they'll complete, timelines, cost estimates and any technical requirements or considerations. All of this information will help to make your integration process as smooth and easy as possible.
Identify EDI message types
We need to identify the specific EDI requirements for your business, such as the required EDI message types and communication protocols. The most common message types we see with our NetSuite integrations are Sales Orders, Order Responses, Delivery Notes (ASNs), Invoices and Forecasts. Due to the customisable nature of both Netix Flow and NetSuite, we are able to configure any message type your business requires.

We use pre-configured profiles so that this stage of the process can be made as quick and easy for you to get set up and integrated sooner. This may also include configuring validation rules and business rules within the EDI integration to enforce data integrity, perform validations, and handle exceptions or errors during the data exchange process.
Test and validate
Before going live, your Netix Flow solution will need to be thoroughly tested to ensure that the trading partner connections are running as expected and that data is being properly exchanged between Netix Flow and NetSuite.
