Order automation for B2B
ECOPLAN delivers digital and automated ordering and replenishment processes, connecting demand capture, business logic, and ERP processes into end-to-end workflows.
Order automation relieves your customers and strengthens customer loyalty
Demand can be captured via scanner, Kanban, RFID, vending machine, machine, or sensor and converted directly into orders, replenishment, or approvals.
For your customers, this means less ordering effort and more reliable supply. For you as a supplier, it means closer integration into your customers' procurement processes.
Less ordering effort
Greater supply security
Automatic replenishment
Stronger customer loyalty
Different paths lead to automated ordering
Order automation connects actual demand directly with the ordering and replenishment process. Withdrawals, consumption, fill levels, empty containers, or incoming orders can automatically trigger the next process steps.
Scanner & order app
Employees capture the items they need directly on site.
Kanban & RFID
Material consumption, empty containers, or inventory movements can automatically trigger replenishment. RFID can also be used for smart warehouse logistics, for example with intelligent shelves or automatically monitored storage locations.
Vending machines
Withdrawals are recorded and can be converted directly into ordering or refill processes.
Machines, IoT & sensors
Fill levels, weights, consumption, or machine states can automatically generate an order.
Email & PDF with AI support
Incoming orders and documents are automatically recognized, read, and broken down into relevant information. AI can interpret unstructured content, match it against existing customer and article data, and prepare it for further processing in the ordering process.
From detected demand to an order in the ERP
Defined rules apply between signal and order: delivery location, fill quantities, approval scenarios, billing address, payment and shipping methods, and notifications after delivery. ECOPLAN implements these rules and passes the order to the ERP as a sales order, fully automatically or with a review and approval step.

Services for automating your ordering processes
ECOPLAN analyzes existing ordering, replenishment, and approval processes and connects demand capture, business rules, ERP integration, and the systems involved into a suitable automation solution.
Depending on the application, implementation ranges from partially automated workflows with review and approval steps to fully automated ordering and replenishment processes.

Order automation for different industrial sectors
Order automation pays off wherever demand recurs regularly: for tools, C-parts, consumables, bulk goods, or spare parts. ECOPLAN implements it for manufacturers and suppliers with different products and supply processes.
ECOPLAN order automation in practice
ECOPLAN has implemented a range of automated ordering and replenishment processes in real B2B scenarios.
Schweizer Salinen - food
Sensors record the fill levels of road salt silos at road maintenance depots and automatically trigger reorders.
VOSS Fluid - mechanical engineering
Kanban scenarios control the automatic reordering of materials in production.
Gühring - tools
Withdrawals from dispensing machines at the customer's site automatically trigger reorders.
