FMCG B2B distribution, HoReCa distribution, Cosmetics & OTC, construction materials, and hybrid eCommerce — for each typical industry built on TransArt: real pain points, activated Azuvio modules, the end-to-end flow, and <strong>before/after</strong> KPIs with figures extracted from production, without replacing a stable ERP.
The figures are indicative estimates based on observed patterns in clients with architectures based on TransArt SFA + Production ERP.
FMCG Distribution (Presales + Van Sales)
Distributor 20-80M€ turnover, 50-200 offline SFA agents, IKA / Modern Retailers
National FMCG distributors who rely on the robustness of TransArt SFA for field agents and TransArt ERP for warehouses, but face significant difficulties working with large IKA retailers (Carrefour, Auchan, Mega Image) who impose EDIFACT, SSCC, and strict SLAs.
- EDIFACT ORDERS/DESADV/INVOIC is not native in TransArt → third-party broker at 10-18k€/year
- OTIF penalties on deliveries to IKA due to manual errors in SSCC completion / pallet packing
- e-Factura validation from ERP generated only syntactically → ANAF rejections on CIUS-RO of 4-8%
- SAF-T D406: mapping of 8.3.x accounts requires manual customization and consumes 4-7 days per month in closings
- Lack of advanced demand prediction (AI Forecasting) for SFA promotions generates dead inventory
EDIconnect without a broker (30+ retailers)
Direct exchange of ORDERS, DESADV SSCC GS1-128 and INVOIC with IKA, natively converted for the TransArt database.
Smart Layer e-Factura semantic B2B

- TransArt allocates warehouse stock, routes the fleet, and validates the commercial invoice
- Upon pick/pack completion, Azuvio automatically issues DESADV with full SSCC pallet layout to Carrefour
- The final TransArt invoice is retrieved read-only → Azuvio simultaneously issues semantic UBL CIUS-RO for ANAF and INVOIC EDIFACT for the retailer's portal
- Field SFA agents continue to take offline/online orders unimpeded on the native TransArt application
- At month-end, the Azuvio SAF-T module automatically reconciles data with the balance sheet, ready in 24h

HoReCa Distribution (Food & Beverage)
Supplying restaurants / hotels, €10-€40M Revenue, daily morning routes
Distributors of food, beverages, and consumables for HoReCa. Industry specifics: customers order late at night via WhatsApp, email or SMS, order collection in the morning is chaotic, agents function as simple "call-centers". TransArt is solid on routes and Van Sales, but lacks a modern front-end.
- Orders received on WhatsApp at 23:30, manually processed in TransArt at 05:00 → van delays
- SFA agents visit restaurants only for "order taking", zero consultative cross-sell
- B2B customers have no visibility on real stock or current account statement / debtors
- Small deliveries (below threshold) that spoil TransArt route margin, with no external courier allocation for isolated areas
- Lack of prediction for fresh / perishable categories → 3-6% spoilage (spoilage / HoReCa returns)
B2B HoReCa Portal
24/7 client self-service with live stock from TransArt warehouses, invoice history, and quick reorder.
AI Demand Forecasting (Food)
Spoilage prediction based on aggregated daily history and HoReCa consumption trends, reducing waste.

Smart Layer e-Invoice B2B Flow
Automated processing of agent receipt payments for validated e-Invoices.
- The restaurant manager orders goods at 11:45 PM in the Azuvio B2B Portal (sees agreed stock/price).
- Azuvio pre-validates commercial conditions and automatically pushes the order into TransArt XML import at 12:01 AM.
- Warehouse management retrieves the picking list at 05:00 AM without manual key-in, preparing TransArt routes.
- The system identifies distant orders (small volume), automatically reserves a courier (Sameday/DPD) via Multi-Courier, and prints the AWB directly from the interface.
- For large proprietary routes, agents deliver using TransArt, issuing invoices in the native system.
- Azuvio synchronizes via read-only SQL, extracts invoice data, and assumes 100% responsibility for correct e-Invoice submission to SPV.

Results after 6 months: 42% of recurring HoReCa clients switched to late-night self-service, agents increased average ticket through in-field cross-selling by 14% (no longer just writing on paper), AI forecasting accuracy 87% for core products.
Cosmetics, Health & OTC
Manufacturer/Distributor 15-50M€ turnover, specific FEFO batch management, pharmacies & duty-free.
Sales to independent pharmacies, Health & Beauty chains (DM, Douglas) or niche retailers. Business model focused on strict control of FEFO batches and specific product seasonality, complemented by highly complex "Trade" promotions supported by TransArt.
- Manual FEFO traceability in TransArt for IKA/EDI retailers → many "close to expiry" returns.
- Trade Promo discounts from ERP are not correctly aligned in EDIFACT INVOIC → retailers delay payment
- The missing portal for B2B customers fragments order taking for beauty salons and pharmacies
- Cumbersome onboarding for new customers – teams lose days acquiring documents
- Intrastat / SAF-T 406 reporting with a mix of tariff codes consumes enormous internal resources
EDIconnect Trade-Aware
Advanced mapping for complex promotion structures from TransArt directly to IKA EDI requirements.
Multi-Location FEFO OMS

Smart Layer e-Factura semantic + SAF-T
Complete automation of CIUS-RO submissions for all complex / promotional invoicing formats.
- Salon/pharmacy customers order online; Kaufland orders EDIFACT
- Upon integrated input, Azuvio applies forecasting logic and visualizes real-time TransArt stock
- For EDI orders, TransArt generates batch details (FEFO) → Azuvio captures and reports in DESADV
- The reconciler scans mapping differences for promotions (goods vs. line discount) preventing INVOIC errors
- Physical delivery continues undisturbed from the TransArt warehouse module
- After invoicing, the expiration report alerts key account managers 90 days before dead stock losses

Retailer payment time was compressed by 14 days because EDI + e-Invoice received a consistently green CIUS-RO rating, with TransArt discount mapping perfectly resolved via Azuvio on-the-fly SQL views.
Construction Materials & DIY
Oversized, multi-warehouse logistics, 10,000+ B2B item portfolio
Companies with mixed distribution (own fleet + oversized national couriers) of tools, hardware, cables, or installations. They heavily use TransArt for managing multiple locations but struggle with alternative courier fleet management and processing large, kilometer-long invoices on CIUS-RO.
- TransArt AWB integration allowing only 1-2 inflexible connections (lacking LTL / oversized courier / Pallex routes)
- B2B invoices with 300+ items (pre-quoted projects) frequently rejected from SPV due to 4/5 decimal place rounding in TransArt
- Complicated SAF-T nomenclature classifications, NC8 mappings, missing reconciliation between balance and physical inventory
- No ETA visibility (route tracking) for partner deliveries, call center is overwhelmed
Multi-Courier B2B / LTL Routing
Selects the best courier/pallet network (Pallex/Gebruder/Fan) based on cost/SLA + volumetric weight.

High-volume B2B e-Invoicing runs autonomously with 99.9% verified semantic success.
Extended D2C eCommerce Distribution
Hybrid retail on legacy B2B + explosive exposure on eMAG / Shopify Marketplace
Companies founded decades ago on a solid TransArt flow (distribution / warehouse) that launched D2C e-Commerce divisions / marketplaces / eMAG, at which point the platform proved unsuitable for 1-per-second integration.
- Tedious TransArt stock publishing (batch at hours/night) → high eMAG cancellation rates, visibility penalties (SLA suspension)
- Separate B2C billing management for individuals vs. CIUS-RO; thousands of small documents overwhelm basic ANAF integrations
- Completely unoptimized small parcel AWB processing (no flexible rules, easybox, simple returns used)
- Tedious separation of warehouse stock: D2C goods quickly move to reserved B2B SFA offline stock
OMS Marketplace Publish (<15s)
Tiered Azuvio-level OMS cache: absorbs real-time marketplace reductions based on fast SQL read synchronization.
B2C + B2B eFactura Router
We volumetrically separate the B2C fiscal flow to correct regulations vs. the standard B2B flow via a fast asynchronous processor.
Multi-Courier Parcel Router
Direct connection to locker-box APIs + bulk printing dozens of AWBs with 1-click without stopping the TransArt van sales flow.
- 300 cumulative B2C orders come from eMAG Marketplace at night. The Azuvio platform captures them live from the eMAG API.
- Azuvio compiles them, reserves soft-stock in its own memory, and pushes them as centralized pre-orders / batch jobs to TransArt for picking preparation.
- During the day, stock-available synchronization to the marketplace is done every 15 seconds based on differential memory cache, avoiding TransArt DB overload.
- For each small B2C delivery, a locker courier AWB is instantly generated with the Azuvio Courier router (Sameday, Cargus etc.).
- Small fiscal invoices issued by the ERP are filtered on a clean CIUS-RO B2C parallel pipeline for SPV archiving.

An 18M€ revenue Home & Deco distributor using TransArt rapidly listed on eMAG/Allegro. They faced a 5.5% cancellation rate and weekly blockages due to B2C synchronization issues. Azuvio implemented the OMS Marketplace layer module <15s in 6 weeks. The result was Elite status on eMAG Marketplace in 3 months, 0.4% D2C out-of-stock errors, and zero costly modifications (tens of thousands of euros) to the core TransArt ERP.
