Furniture Manufacturer Connectors & Integrations
Are you still waiting for Connectors to be built into your current software?
e-manage |ONE is committed to integration between furniture dealers and furniture manufacturers. We actively solicit integration development by any furniture manufacturer or vendor to move the furniture industry into the 21st century.
e-manage | ONE has the tools you need to streamline processes, free up time to focus on customers and eliminate human error. e-manage |ONE also ensures that your pricing and discounting structures keep your company competitive by validating list, cost and customer discount (for direct bill jobs) against your manufactures master database.
We have all seen it, the errors in list pricing from your specifying software. It is inevitable, and can cost you dearly in precious margins when the list price of the product you quote is not accurate. We not only work with the manufacturers that already have existing web services available to electronically validate pricing, but also actively lobby every major manufacturer to step up to the plate for their dealers with this basic functionality.
Integrated Manufacturers & Partners
e-manage | ONE is fully integrated with Herman Miller’s Kiosk Order Manager web services, exposing every service offered for users to take advantage of:
OFDA XML Standard – Everyone knows that OFDA XML is the new standard adopted by most manufactures for obtaining pricing, ordering product, processing electronic acknowledgments, and processing invoices. e-manage | ONE not only imports OFDA XML files from the top specifying software (20/20 Worksheet, Spec, Configura CET Designer, Herman Miller Z-Axis), but also generates OFDA XML files by manufacturer. Of course, e-manage|ONE still imports .sif Files, and will also create .sif files by manufacturer.
Using Configura’s Spec software, you can integrate catalogs into the e-manage|ONE Bill of Materials / Quote window allowing users to add new items or re-option existing items by browsing the Herman Miller supplied catalogs. When integrating Spec, 3d rendered images are automatically added to the item on the printed quote and stores the image against the base part for future use.
Herman Miller Quote Tool– (VIDEO) Every quote created in e-manage|ONE can be sent electronically to Herman Miller via web service for pricing and lead time checking. Users simply choose the pricing contract to apply, Dealer or Direct Billing, and send the quote. Within minutes an XML will be returned with correct List Price, MFG Discounting, Lead Times, and Customer Discounts (when direct bill contract is chosen) which is applied to the Bill of Materials used for the quote. This ensures that your company is using accurate pricing when determining customer prices, keeping your margins tighter.
Herman Miller Order Manager Web Service– Send one or more orders at one time to Herman Miller electronically. e-manage|ONE will list all of your Herman Miller purchase orders that have not already been sent, so you won’t miss sending in an order. Once sent, your orders move to a status grid where you can open the order page on the Herman Miller website, or electronically check the Factory Order Status right from e-manage|ONE. e-manage|ONE also exposes the option to save the order as a draft if any necessary information is missing from the submission. Users can then correct any errors on the Herman Miller Order Manager web portal manually without having to resubmit the order.
Downloading and Processing Acknowledgments, Shipment Notifications and Invoices – e-manage|ONE allows Users to download all new Acknowledgments, Shipment Notifications, and Invoices that have not already been downloaded, however, we have exposed options to download any combination of these by date range and include all instead of just new. This will prevent missing important information because of interruptions in internet service while downloading.
Status Check – Users can check the Factory Order Status of any order sent via e-manage|ONE to Herman Miller Kiosk Order Manager.
In a nutshell, Haworth and e-manage|ONE will hand you back hundreds if not thousands of hours of productivity every year in time spent refreshing Lynx, waiting for pricing requests to complete and having to manually enter redundant header and project information. It is estimated to save an average size dealer $80k – $100k a YEAR.
Haworth Web Services – e-manage|ONE is the only Business System that has fully integrated Haworth’s Web Services for Lynx Quote Validation, Lynx Order Entry and Automatically download / processing of Lynx Acknowledgments and Invoices. No manual reconciliation or possibility for human mistake.
Haworth New Partner Request Are also included in e-manage|ONE making it easier and faster to get quotes out to your customers ensuring the most accurate pricing to reduce margin erosion.
The new partner request is exclusively on the quote tool submission window. When you submit a quote and choose to also submit a new partner request, e-manage|ONE will create two quotes for you. 1 will have the quote base information, the new partner request and will have the first line item of the quote… only 1 line item will be on that quote just there to transport the new partner request. A second quote is then created without the new partner request that will run normally. You will be notified when the new partner request is completed and can check the status at any time from the TODAY pop-out panel and “OPEN PRICING REQUESTS”.

Canvas – (VIDEO) A single xml file can be exported from Canvas which includes Haworth Walls products, other Haworth product and non-Haworth or Haworth product from the Configura Spec Extension. Currently, we are the only software with the capability of importing XML exports from Canvas that also contain Configura Spec Extension Parts in them. We, in fact, developed the interpreter from scratch that allows this import. XML files from Canvas are seamlessly imported into the e-manage | ONE Bill of Materials / Quoting window and grouped using familiar tagging.
Project Matrix – (VIDEO) Don’t need a drawing or not selling walls products? You can use Configura’s Spec tool to build your items, export as .sif or OFDA XML and seamlessly import into e-manage|ONE.
