Synchronize packaging hierarchy data between PIM and Syndication
The Exchange allows you to synchronize a packaging hierarchy data between PIM and Syndication.
Prerequisite
To successfully synchronize a packaging hierarchy data between PIM and Syndication, you must prepare your data model in PIM as follows:
- The packaging hierarchy relationship name must be modelled as haschild.
- The quantity relationship attribute must be modelled at a relationship level with syndigoInternalPackagingQuantity.
- The packaging type attribute must be modelled at an entity level with syndigoInternalPackagingTypeCode.
If you are unable to align with the above naming standards, please raise a service request to the Support team. You must also provide them the required packaging hierarchy relationship name, quantity relationship attribute, and packaging type attribute details.
Scenario: Let us consider that a Retailer synchronizes a packaging hierarchy data of an item from PIM to Syndication with the following attributes:
| Package Type | Attribute | Value |
|---|---|---|
| Pallet | GTIN | 58743658743611 |
| GDSN Short Description | PH Syndication | |
| Case | GTIN | 58743658743628 |

| BaseUnit | GTIN | 58743658743635 |
