Enhanced GLN Functionality Guides now Available on the SAP Service Marketplace for Healthcare
SAP's support of GLNs and GTINs may be one of our best-kept secrets (at least, outside Retail and Consumer Products). The fact is, SAP has supported GLNs and GTIN since 2006, and the functionality has been in core ECC since ECC 6.0 EHP2. In addition, SAP supports Traceability in the SAP Auto-ID Enterprise application.
2010 is the year of the GLN Sunrise, whereby healthcare trading partners voluntarily will begin transacting business using the Global Location Number (GLN) in lieu of individual location codes and account numbers. The first step is the use of Ship-to GLNs on Purchase Order (850), Order Acknowledgement (855), Advanced Shipment Notification (856), and Invoice (810) EDI transactions.
GLNs on EDI transactions for Rebates and Chargebacks (844, 845, and 867) are being addressed in the SAP Solution for Rebates and Chargebacks by Vistex.

Operational Goals, EDI and SAP Information Interchange
This economic recovery looks to be a slow grind that will test management's capacity to increase production without adding significantly to headcount. This will force companies to seek greater efficiencies in order to increase production. Reducing paper processing and administration costs is one way to reduce costs. Expanding EDI and B2B data exchanges with trading partners is an effective way to reduce costs, but not if it requires an increased headcount of expensive EDI professionals and consultants or more software and hardware.
