B2BE & EDA | Supporting Electrical Wholesalers Through Smart Automation
Digital Transformation for Wholesalers
Digital transformation isn’t a buzzword in wholesale — it’s a real opportunity to improve accuracy, efficiency, and service. But it’s not always straightforward.
As a wholesaler, many find themselves patching gaps with manual workarounds between siloed systems, inconsistent product data, and rising customer expectations.
That’s why we partnered with the Electrical Distributors’ Association (EDA) — to help electrical wholesalers tackle these challenges with the right tools, support, and experience.
What Wholesalers Are Facing Today
Here are some challenges faced within the industry:
Supplier invoices arriving via post, email, fax, and EDI — all needing processing
Matching purchase orders to goods received and invoices taking up days of staff time
Inconsistent product data causing downstream issues
eCommerce, ERP, and financial systems running in silos
Costly delays and disputes from incorrect or incomplete documentation
Streamline the Way You Buy — From Order to Payment
We help wholesalers simplify and automate the full procure-to-pay cycle — from placing purchase orders to matching invoices and paying suppliers. Here’s what you can achieve:
Automatically receive and digitise supplier invoices (EDI, PDF, or paper)
Match invoices with purchase orders and goods received (three-way matching)
Identify and resolve mismatches through a single exception dashboard
Feed only verified, accurate invoices into your ERP
Cut processing times, errors, and back-and-forth with suppliers
How B2BE & EDA Help Wholesalers
We support electrical wholesalers with solutions that:
- Automate invoice matching (PO, GRN, and invoice)
- Digitise all invoice types with smart document workflows
- Reduce AP team workload by flagging only exceptions
- Improve compliance and cash flow visibility
- Create a consistent, scalable procure-to-pay process
Solid Collaborations and Real Manufacturer Impact
Rexel UK had already been working with B2BE to digitise incoming invoices — whether by EDI, email, or fax — using B2BE’s Document Digitisation Process (DDP).
When they needed a smarter way to validate supplier invoices against what was ordered and received, they turned to B2BE to automate their three-way matching process.
The result? Faster, more accurate processing — and an accounts payable function that supports the wider business, not slows it down.
