Supply Lens automates the East of England Co-op supplier document cycle. Purchase orders in, invoices out, transmitted directly and mapped to your ERP or IMS with the right depot codes, supplier IDs and East of England Co-op tolerance rules built in.
East of England Co-op's flow looks straightforward on paper. The work is in the supplier and location codes, the tolerance rules on every invoice and the format East of England Co-op expects each message to follow. Get any of it wrong and you eat a deduction. Supply Lens is configured for those rules out of the box.
East of England Co-op receives EDI through a direct point-to-point AS2 connection. Supply Lens manages the certificates, the partner profile and the gateway on your behalf, so you don't need your own AS2 setup, B2B gateway or trading partner agreement to maintain.
East of England Co-op uses Tradacoms, the legacy UK retail format still standard across most established UK retailers. Supply Lens generates and parses Tradacoms structures correctly so the format is invisible from your ERP's point of view, the order just arrives.
East of England Co-op identifies products by GS1 EAN and an internal article reference. Supply Lens maintains a cross-reference table mapping both to your own item codes, so the PO lands correctly in your ERP regardless of which identifier East of England Co-op sends.
East of England Co-op applies strict invoice matching on price and quantity. Supply Lens validates the invoice against the originating PO and your agreed cost list before transmission, flagging any discrepancy for review rather than sending it and risking a deduction later.
Each East of England Co-op PO names a destination DC by code. Supply Lens maps every active East of England Co-op location to the correct routing in your warehouse system, so the order lands against the right depot in your ERP without manual intervention.
Your agreed East of England Co-op cost list is registered in Supply Lens. Promotional pricing, cost changes and tier breaks are all applied automatically when an invoice is generated, so the price East of England Co-op sees on the INVFIL always matches what was agreed.
Supply Lens handles the full East of England Co-op document set inbound and outbound, so nothing is ever manually produced, rekeyed or sent late.
Supply Lens holds East of England Co-op's rules and the AS2 connection so you don't have to. Your team provides credentials, product mappings and the agreed cost list. Everything else lives in the Supply Lens layer.

Format never reaches your system. Supply Lens parses East of England Co-op's Tradacoms ORDHDR into a clean order payload your ERP already understands and renders your outbound invoice as INVFIL on the way back out. Your team works in their normal interface, the format conversion happens in the Supply Lens layer.
Invoice values are validated against the originating PO and your agreed East of England Co-op cost list before submission. Discrepancies are flagged before the INVFIL is sent, giving your team a chance to correct or query rather than receive a East of England Co-op deduction weeks later.
Promotional pricing is held against your East of England Co-op cost list and applied per line at invoice time. New promotional EANs map to existing items where possible. Any unmapped reference goes to an exception queue immediately rather than rejecting the order outright.
Unrecognised EANs go to an exception queue immediately. The PO is held, your team is notified with the full East of England Co-op context, the mapping is added and the order is re-triggered. No silent drop, no late invoice, no missed delivery window.
