The Challenge: Managing Multi-Format Document Exchange

As Lund Stougaard’s operations grew, so did the complexity of their document management needs. They faced several challenges:

 

  • Multiple Data Formats: Orders were received in both PDF and EDI formats from various suppliers.
  • Disparate Channels: Documents were submitted via IMAP, FTP, and network paths, requiring a flexible intake system.
  • Manual Processes: Order handling and document formatting required manual intervention, slowing down workflows and increasing the risk of error.
  • Rackbeat ERP Compatibility: Their goal was to consolidate all order, invoice, and credit note data into their Rackbeat ERP system, with custom handling based on each source and format.

 

The company needed a comprehensive, automated solution to streamline their document processing pipeline and ensure accuracy and efficiency.

The Solution: ERP Integration and Document Conversion

To address these challenges, we implemented a tailored solution built around ERP integration and document format conversion, specifically optimized for their Rackbeat system.

 

✅Order Integration

 

  • Multi-Channel Capture: Orders received through FTP, IMAP, and network folders were captured automatically.
  • PDF-to-Compatible Conversion: For orders received via IMAP in PDF format, we deployed a custom PDF conversion engine to transform data into a Rackbeat-compatible format.
  • Automatic Import: All converted order data was imported directly into Rackbeat, ensuring real-time order visibility and processing.

 

✅ Invoice & Credit Note Integration

 

  • Network-Based Delivery: Invoices and credit notes were formatted and routed through secure network paths.
  • ERP Alignment: All document formats were processed and synchronized with Rackbeat, ensuring seamless financial data handling and reduced back-office workload.
