Data Synchronization Overview
‘101’
Step 1- Prepare & Aggregate - A supplier must prepare the
item data. This includes aggregation of data to meet data
attribute requirements, formatting of data to meet industry
standards, and ensuring it will pass validation rules
Step 2 – Publish Item data to their source data pool
(WWRE) – A supplier may publish data to the WWRE in one of
two ways, spreadsheets or XML. ( Industry standard EAN.UCC
XML is supported)
Step 3 – Register Item data – The supplier’s data pool
must register base item information ( 8 attributes) with the
EAN.UCC Global registry. The registry will validate that the
items are registered and unique.
Step 4 – Through the use of their recipient data pool
(WWRE) a Retailer/Distributor interrogates the
EAN.UCC Global registry to do a “411:” on where supplier
data is located. The Global registry points to where in the
network the data resides.
Step 5 – Data Exchange – A connection between a
suppliers source data pool (WWRE & Others) and a
Retailer/Distributors recipient data pool (WWRE) is established.
Data and messaging is exchanged between data pools.
Step 6 – Data flow to Retailer/Distributor –
Retailer/Distributors are able to pull data into their back end
systems (EAN.UCC XML)
