Retailers and suppliers must work well together to improve the quality of the shared business processes and to maximize the profits seen by both sides, but the process of on-boarding partners can be a bit overwhelming. It takes too long to get partners set up-6 to 10 weeks typically, there are only a handful of staff members to manage potentially thousands of partners, and the company may be rolling out a new project such as an SAP update, ASN program, or cross docking.

An on-boarding solution helps enterprises that need to quickly and accurately setup hundreds or thousands of trading partners. With a solution like the Inovis Partner Performance Management suite, buyers and sellers can work together to improve the quality of shared business processes, finding and fixing issues across purchase orders, invoices, logistics, deductions and vendor compliance. An on-boarding solution also helps companies to get products to market faster and speeds up time-to-revenue, as well as improves data accuracy from new partners, lowering inbound logistics costs.
