The Portal is primarily a tool for placing and validating international orders to MSF Supply. In the Portal it is also possible to consult the catalogue of MSF Supply, create Standard lists and Forecasts.
The Portal interacts with other systems, here below is a basic illustration of the main interactions/relationships.
- The catalogue feeds from Unidata through the internal ERP system of MSF Supply, Nodhos (a). In Nodhos, MSF Supply decides whether or not items will be made available on the Portal (b).
- As for Unifield, the tool is feeds from Unidata (c).
- After placing a purchase order on the Portal (d), MSF Supply integrates theese order lines into Nodhos and there, proceeds to order management and transport arrangements (e). Users can follow those further steps on the Extranet, which instantly displays the ongoing tasks executed in Nodhos (f).
- Unifield users can retrieve both purchase orders (g) and incoming shipments' (h) confirmations through the Extranet.
