E2open,
the one place in the cloud to run your supply chain, today announced the
E2open Global Data Pool. This Global Data Synchronization Network (GDSN)
interoperable data pool meets the standards of GS1,
a not-for-profit organization that develops and maintains global
standards for business communication. The E2open Global Data Pool
certification test was administered by Drummond
Group Inc.,
the trusted leader in interoperability software testing.

Through the E2open Global Data Pool, customers and partners now have
access to the GS1 GDSN, which is both a global registry and a network of
interoperable data pools, directly from the E2open platform. The GDSN
enables companies around the world to exchange standardized and
synchronized supply chain data with their trading partners and assures
that data exchanges are accurate and compliant with universally
supported standards. E2open Global Data Pool is now one of only 43 such
GDSN-certified data pools available worldwide.

“GS1 certification has been a long-term vision of ours. It furthers our
mission of operating the largest global supply chain network in the
world and using it to power our applications and deliver value to our
customers,” said Pawan Joshi, executive vice president, products &
strategy at E2open. “With the E2open Global Data Pool, anyone on our
network can now automatically share authentic, trusted and standardized
product information and communication between customers, partners and
suppliers anywhere in the world, with superior data accuracy and
efficiency.”

The E2open Global Data Pool enables customers and their partners to do
the following and more:

  • Subscribe to the GS1 global item registry and synchronize related
    attributes
  • Process and enrich inbound and outbound data on the E2open network
  • Register global item locations, identifiers and attributes
  • Synchronize product data with a global trading community
  • Manage item and location data from a single platform

“We commend E2open for the completion of the GDSN Interoperability
Certification and their commitment to securely and automatically
transmit data in the universally supported GS1 system of standards,”
Alan Hyler, director of GDSN and master data at GS1.
