1. Standardizing supplier lists
Challenge: Suppliers send files with different headers, making it difficult to analyze or consolidate their offers.
Magic Table Solution: Align all supplier files with one predefined template (e.g., “Supplier Product Sheet”) and export a single, clean version.
Example: Format 10 supplier product lists into one consistent structure with fields like “Supplier Name,” “Product Code,” “Unit Price,” and “Lead Time.”
Benefits:
-
Immediate comparison between suppliers.
-
Clean data ready for ERP import.
-
No more format errors.
2. Aligning stock reports
Challenge: Stock exports differ between warehouses, making it hard to create a unified inventory view.
Magic Table Solution: Use Magic Table to map each stock file to the same standard template.
Example: Import 3 CSV files from different warehouses, align “Article ID” and “Stock Qty” fields, and export a single inventory summary.
Benefits:
-
Consistent stock visibility.
-
Simplified updates.
-
Quick, repeatable process.
3. Formatting logistics data for partners
Challenge: Logistics partners often require specific templates for inbound/outbound data.
Magic Table Solution: Choose the partner’s required template and align your internal data accordingly.
Example: Format your shipping report to match your 3PL’s template with columns like “SKU”, “Weight”, and “Destination.”
Benefits:
-
No manual restructuring.
-
Fewer rejected uploads.
-
Smoother collaboration with partners.
