Play
Along (Hong Kong) Limited, the manufacturer of the well-known
Britney Spears' Fashion Dolls, was established in Hong Kong
in May 1999. They are one of the successful companies that make
use of EDI to help to grow their business.
Play
Along first came to Infomaster with their EDI
requirements in September 1999. In January 2000 Infomaster
successfully delivered the ECGlobal
EDI translation software, ECGateway
EDI communications software and InfoEC Network
services to connect Play Along to Wal-Mart. Both
ECGlobal and ECGateway
systems are tightly integrated together to provide full EDI
automation features. The ECGlobal
system also provides a program interface for their Manufacturing
Resource Processing (MRP) system to easily import and export
EDI data automatically. Being EDI capable, Play
Along has successfully marketed their products to other
well-known retail chain stores. Today, besides Wal-Mart,
Play Along also trades effectively with Target Stores,
Toys 'R' Us, Shopko and JCPenney via Infomaster's
InfoEC network and EDI systems.
After using ECGlobal,
ECGateway and InfoEC
services, Play Along can receive Purchase Orders from
their fine customers automatically; and they can also easily
send Invoices to their customers with only one kick of a button.
In addition, the user-friendly features of the ECGlobal
and ECGateway systems enable
Play Along's business managers to manage the electronic
Purchase Orders, Advise Shipping Notices and Invoices from/to
their multiple trading partners without any difficulties. Infomaster's
EDI systems run so successful and stable in Play Along's
business environment that they always meet Play Along's
critical business needs.
