Elfershausen/Marktheidenfeld, 24.04.2018 – At the leading international trade fair FENSTERBAU FRONTALE, which recently took place in Nuremberg, the leading sunlight manager Warema and the organization solution provider for the window trade ZMI presented a new type of integration for networking the digital platforms of both companies.
The completely newly developed interface between the online platform myWAREMA, which can be used to configure and order individual sun shading systems with just a few clicks, and the organizational solution for the window trade ZMI – orgAuftrag, enables Warema specialist dealers to digitally transfer calculation and document data to their own merchandise management system. For example, article numbers, article descriptions, quantities and unit prices can be transferred from myWarema to ZMI. The myWAREMA online platform is accessed directly from the ZMI solution to ensure convenient operation.
“The wide range of information that is generated when designing an individual sun shading product can be transferred to the offer by the specialist retailer at the touch of a button. Time-consuming, manual data transfers and isolated solutions are now a thing of the past,” explains Steffen Berger, Managing Partner of ZMI. Stefan Kobes, Head of Digital Business at Warema, adds: “With myWarema, we have already created a digital interface between manufacturers and specialist retailers in the past. The newly developed integration with ZMI’s merchandise management system is the logical continuation of this digital path.”
