What is Pricat / product catalog?
An ANSI X12 EDI 832 (Price Sales Catalog) is a message used to distribute the goods and services catalog data between a supplier and its customers and update the prices of the goods and/or services they provide. This file replaces the need for a more traditional paper based catalog to be updated and sent to a supplier’s customer base. In theory, the paper based version of this file could be out of date the moment it is generated. An electronic replacement can be resent and updated as many times as the supplier requires. It follows the EDI message standard ANXI X12 and is a crucial message type for the retail industries' electronic purchasing process.
Benefits
1) Customers can instantly know what is being offered by the supplier, and the availability of the offer
2) Promotional and special offers can be highlighted and planned for
3) Automatic updating of a customer’s ERP ordering system, no requirement for the legacy paper based catalog
4) Syncing of data between a customer and supplier, to make all future orders seamless
5) Fewer errors overall as well as the ability to correct previously sent errors
