Epicor Commerce Connect (ECC) is a cloud-based service that helps business-to-business (B2B) companies manage and process vendor purchases. ECC has multiple features to help source and satisfy B2B purchasing needs, including online ordering, invoicing, and individual order tracking. Here are three ways Epicor Commerce Connect can help streamline B2B purchasing:

1. Bulk Ordering – ECC enables B2B customers to easily order large quantities of products and components from suppliers with minimal effort. ECC allows customers to define and place repeat orders with multiple vendors using template orders, making bulk purchases easier and more efficient.

2. Optimizing supplier relationships – ECC provides information on supplier price levels, discounts and payment terms, enabling customers to quickly find the best supplier for their purchasing needs. ECC also automates order placement and invoice processing, eliminating the need for manual interaction between customers and vendors.

3. Improved Inventory Management – With real-time access to supplier stock levels, customers can reduce the risk of stock-outs, ensuring uninterrupted production. This real-time access also allows customers to take advantage of promotional pricing or stock clearances when available.

Epicor Commerce Connect is a powerful tool for optimizing B2B purchasing. By simplifying the procurement process, ECC can help its clients save time and money, which translates into tangible cost savings and improved operational efficiencies. Companies can take advantage of ECC capabilities to improve their B2B procurement infrastructure and processes while making life easier for purchasing and fulfillment staff.
