Managing the process
Step 1 - supplying
Product data is supplied from different systems or suppliers to the central PIM system and here it is updated and enriched with text, specifications, images, video and more from the various departments, each with their own responsibilities.
Step 2 - Enrichment
Employees across the company's departments can thus always find, maintain and work with data in one place.
The central PIM system supports product data differentiated in several different languages, for several different markets and for widely different channels, such as your product catalog, website, webshop, apps etc.
Step 3 - Planning
When the various product information is enriched, maintained and updated, it is possible to plan when and on which channels the product information should be placed.
Step 4 - Publishing
Finally, the updated data from the PIM system is exported to the various channels where you will need them. It can either be done as needed or in conjunction with promotions or seasonal launches.
