Embreis left a manual era behind with Golden EDI
Embreis knew they needed a partner they could trust to optimize their internal trade flows between Sweden and Norway. Golden EDI delivered a solution that minimized their manual work and boosted their efficiency
Introducing Embreis
Embreis is an established orthopedic company based in Sweden, providing innovative solutions for orthotic and prosthetic needs, to customers in the Nordics and worldwide. Embreis distributes high-quality orthopedic products to clinicians, improving the quality of life for their patients.
Background
In need to streamline internal processes and better integrate cross-border operations
Embreis had a need to improve the efficiency of their operations between their internal branches and were facing challenges when it came to managing transactions with its Norwegian sales subsidiary. To solve this problem, Embreis decided to implement Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central to streamline their internal processes and better integrate their cross-border operations.
Leaving a manual era behind
Before the transition, Embreis struggled with heavy, manual workflows when dealing with its Norwegian operations. Manually matching purchase orders with sales orders and handling internal trade flows were time-consuming administrative tasks.
Golden EDI’s Intercompany Hub saves the day
To overcome these challenges, Embreis teamed up with Golden EDI. This was based on the success of a previous project in which Golden EDI had integrated a e-invoicing solution. They worked closely with consultants from Golden EDI to implement their Intercompany Hub solution within Business Central. This included:
Automation of internal trade flows
Minimize manual processes, reduce errors, and increase efficiency with seamless management of internal trade between Embreis AB in Sweden and Embreis AS in Norway.
Synchronization of orders
The system was designed to synchronize orders between the two countries, ensuring that purchase orders from Norway can be easily matched with the corresponding sales orders in Sweden.
Customs processes
Golden EDI customized the solution to meet Embreis’s specific needs, including the handling of special discounts to comply with customs regulations.
“Having worked with Golden EDI on a previous project, we knew they were a partner we could trust. So, when we needed an Intercompany solution, they were our first choice. They integrated our internal systems, improved accuracy, and freed up time for us to focus more on the growth of our business. Their solution has helped us to optimize our daily work.” Thomas Hammarlund, COO at Embreis.
"Golden EDI’s Intercompany solution and their work with integrating our systems has changed everything for the better. The automated flows run smoothly, and our manual work in Business Central is now slim to none.” – Henrietta Z. Hammarlund, Quality/ Marketing Manager at Embreis
Golden EDI’s integration – a game-changer for Embreis
Golden EDI’s solution has improved Embries workflow significantly. Processes that had been carried out manually, such as order fulfillment and internal trade between the Swedish and Norwegian branches, were automated. This change allowed the company to focus on other valuable activities rather than administrative tasks.
With all tasks handled efficiently in the automated flow, Embreis no longer needed to "chase" orders or manually intervene in routine processes.
"The collaboration with Golden EDI has been fantastic. Their support made us feel secure throughout the entire process." – Henrietta Z. Hammarlund, Quality/ Marketing Manager at Embreis
Trust leading to continued collaboration
After the successful implementation of the Intercompany Hub solution, Embreis has continued to work with Golden EDI to refine their processes. Next in line is improving the flow of returned orders and item synchronization between countries, which will further improve accuracy and efficiency in managing personalized orthopedic products.
An appreciated project from both sides
