Individualized import formats for product catalogs
Project duration: 1 year, 10 months
Brief description
Support is provided for the creation of XSLT scripts to generate customer-specific interchange formats for product catalogs. In addition to the specific implementation, general know-how is provided in the area of XML/XSLT.
Supplement
In multiple one and two-day workshops, specific customer requirements are examined in order to either improve existing XSLT scripts or create completely new ones. In addition, general knowledge of XML and XSLT is provided. Altova XMLSpy is used as the XSLT development tool.
Subject description
The company mainly supplies B2B customers with paper products. As these are often resold by customers, there is almost always a requirement for the customers to receive the relevant information about products in an interchange format that can be processed directly by the customer’s own systems (e.g. the BMEcat format). The company achieves this by enabling their IT system to allow postprocessing with XSLT scripts when the catalogs are exported. The XSLT scripts describe the customer-specific formatting for each individual customer.
