SAS GDSN Initiative<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

SAS has partnered with 1WorldSync to leverage the Global Data Synchronization Network (GDSN), to streamline new item setup and maintenance for SAS suppliers. GDSN allows suppliers to enter trusted, standardized, item content into the network and then send that content directly to SAS. This process will help ensure SAS has quality, accurate, and up to date information on all items in their catalog and ultimately get supplier products on shelves faster.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In using GDSN for new item set-up and maintenance, suppliers will be able to house all item records in one localized application and unify item setup. All updates performed on existing items, within GDSN, will automatically flow over to SAS allowing for real-time updates of supplier product content. With the proven efficiencies of using GDSN, this is now the preferred method<\/strong><\/em> of getting all item content to SAS.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
