PDX Syndication

PDX Syndication features an intuitive interface, with an easy-to-read dashboard that provides visibility into all products and channels. With the dashboard, users gain a quick snapshot of how many products are in each channel and what stage of the syndication process those products are in. Drill down directly from the dashboard for further analysis and action.

Collect and upload information and content in multiple ways including Excel and JSON or use the PDX API to connect directly to your upstream systems with PDX Syndication. Then map data and transform it to match the retailer’s data standards using a library of pre-built data augmentation tools.

Validate data in real time by getting feedback about retailers’ categories, lists of values, data types, and business rules. This reduces back-and-forth communication and enables required corrective action.

The product data syndication solution allows you to enrich and augment data as needed to match retailers’ standards and validation rules.

Get instant, automated feedback when retailers’ requirements or rules change, empowering you to update and validate data to maintain compliance. Then automatically publish and share updates with validated data and content using appropriate channel standards and protocols.

The solution’s unique monitoring tools allow you to track and review data quality and ensure retail partners are using the most up-to-date information and content across all channels. Gain visibility and insight into product presentation and performance, expand assortments and drive collaborative success

Manufacturers that syndicate to many retail partners can build configured channels to meet a retailer’s unique needs. The solution’s flexible UI enables the creation of requirements, attributes and validation rules. In addition to spreadsheet outputs, a templating engine supports configurable XML/JSON outputs.

The speed with which a PDX channel can be created is key. With the Channel Software Development Kit, new channels can be quickly created, providing a simplified channel implementation and maintenance process. This empowers you with the ability to create new and relevant channels whenever they are needed, and dramatically reduce the time to market for new channels.

PDX Syndication’s digital catalog provides a new way to share high-volume, authorized content, featuring the ability to push specific product data to selected retailers in an online catalog. This builds stronger, more collaborative relationships with retail partners while simplifying the process of sharing product information to predefined, high-value channels. The digital catalog also has a pre-built API that can be used to automate pull-down of content.
