Order Export (order copies from Unite)

Do you approve orders through Unite’s user management and want each order export to appear in your ERP system?

The Order Export interface provides a copy of every order, complete with order data and item details, for automatic import into your system. This process helps you to maintain visibility of all approved orders from Unite, record goods receipts, and match invoices accurately. 

Splitting mixed baskets by supplier

If you purchase from Exclusive Catalogues or BusinessShops alongside the Unite assortment, the system creates one order per supplier once a basket is approved. This way, you’ll receive several order exports for the same order, each containing only the details of the items purchased from the same supplier.

To help your ERP system assign each order correctly, every document also includes the customer number you use with Unite and the supplier.

The download file below offers sample order copies, including examples for an order from the Unite assortment and a C‑Order (commission order) placed with an Exclusive Catalogue or BusinessShop supplier.
