Catalogue Sync
Keep product data aligned across systems, partners and channels.
Product data rarely lives in one place. Prices change, ranges update, attributes evolve — and every trading partner expects to receive the right information in the right format.
Catalogue Sync keeps product data consistent across your integrations, reducing errors, rework and downstream disputes.
The problem it solves
When catalogue updates are manual or fragmented, problems spread quickly:
-
partners receive outdated prices or descriptions
-
item updates aren’t reflected everywhere
-
mismatched product data causes order and invoice issues
-
teams maintain multiple versions of the “same” catalogue
-
small changes create large operational fallout
Catalogue Sync turns product updates into a controlled, repeatable process.
What Catalogue Sync does
Synchronise product data across partners
Distribute updates such as:
-
product identifiers and SKUs
-
descriptions and attributes
-
pricing and availability
-
status changes (new, updated, discontinued)
Reduce data-related rejects
Ensure partners receive accurate, up-to-date catalogue information in the structure they expect.
Support ongoing change, not just onboarding
Catalogue Sync isn’t just for initial setup — it supports continuous updates as products evolve.
Maintain traceability
Track when updates were sent, to whom, and what changed — supporting audits and partner queries.
How it works
1) Capture catalogue updates
Product changes are introduced from your internal systems or managed updates.
2) Apply partner-specific mappings
Translate internal data into the format each trading partner requires.
3) Distribute updates automatically
Send updates to partners through the appropriate channels and document flows.
4) Monitor and validate outcomes
Track delivery, validation and exceptions to ensure updates land correctly.
