Product Data Onboarding (PDON)

The retailsolutions Product Data Onboarding (PDON) application on SAP BTP allows Retailers and their vendors to import, enhance, maintain and syndicate product data centrally in the cloud, before releasing to the S/4HANA system via a 2-step approval process.

Overview

Collaborate on product data

PDON is a cloud-based solution that facilitates the centralized onboarding of product data. It empowers data suppliers to input their product data independently through a user-friendly interface. The data can be manually entered or imported using different file formats.

Consolidate product data from different sources

PDON can be easily integrated to external data sources such as Data pools so that retailers can import 3rd party product data into their own product database. Based on an event driven architecture, PDON keeps the cloud data base and the S/4HANA product data base in sync.

Streamlining Data Maintenance

Thanks to its template feature, PDON reduces data maintenance efforts to a minimum. It automatically finds and copies attributes from similar products.
