Business Objective
Belgrade sought an automated solution to streamline its order processing and scale operations. Manual data transformation caused delays, errors, and inefficiencies. Rockwool, the supplier, required order data in EDIFACT format via AS2, and Belgrade’s raw data didn’t support that format. Overall, the insulation distributor needed a solution that could help them scale and handle increased order volume while maintaining accuracy.

Automating Purchase Order Processing
We configured Boomi to fetch purchase order details from Belgrade’s database. Boomi automatically identified the relevant orders under specific conditions, such as orders selected when the supplier was Rockwool, only new orders created on the current data, and line items included when they were pending or partially fulfilled. Automating data extraction reduced the risk of error and accelerated the whole process.
Converting Data into EDIFACT Format
We used Boomi EDI to automatically transform the data extracted from Belgrade into Rockwool’s required format. By standardizing the format, we ensured that all the documents were fully compliant, which reduced rejection rates.
Securely Sending Purchase Orders via AS2
We used an AS2 connector to transform EDIFACT orders, ensuring encrypted, real-time delivery. This approach eliminated manual effort, ensured supplier compliance, maintained industry standards, and enabled seamless, secure EDI order exchange between trading partners.
