Aleph FrontANOM
The commerce back-office built for procurement.
ANOM is a multi-tenant commerce back-office for distributors and manufacturers: catalogue, prices per buyer, orders, quotes, PunchOut and EDI in one platform. On Intershop, it is the interface your teams use every day.
Book a demoANOM and Intershop
- One interface
- Quotes, approvals, prices, carts, after-sales and content in one place, organised by job. Intershop provides the foundation, ANOM is what your teams work in.
- Intershop core untouched
- ANOM drives Intershop through its API and never modifies the core, so upgrades stay simple.
- Always up to date
- You stay on the latest Intershop version. API changes and retired functions are absorbed by ANOM, with no impact on your teams.
- Upgrades included
- No migration project to budget when Intershop releases a new version.
- Run by Aleph
- Hosting, migrations, upgrades and fixes: our team runs Intershop for you.
- Light and hardened
- The whole application weighs about 50 MB, the size of 35 floppy disks. It runs in a minimal, hardened, read-only environment, and releases go out without downtime.
Sell at the right price
- Pricing engine
- One price per buyer, resolved at every request: named customer, segment or everyone, with a clear rule for which price wins.
- Price lists
- Negotiated grids with validity periods and quantity tiers, attached to a customer or a segment.
- Promotion engine
- Promotions with a simulator. Every order shows what each promotion actually removed.
Plug into your buyers' systems
- PunchOut
- Buyers shop from their purchasing system over cXML or OCI: SAP Ariba, Coupa, Oracle iProcurement, Jaggaer, Workday, SAP SRM or S/4HANA. The cart returns as a requisition.
- EDI
- Orders, despatch advice, catalogue and prices, and sell-out reports exchanged automatically and securely with each trading partner.
- Approvals and ANOM Tappr
- Buyer-side approval workflows by cost centre. Approvers decide from ANOM Tappr, our iOS and Android app: real-time notifications, swipe to approve, or approve a whole batch at once.
Run the catalogue
- Catalogue (PIM)
- Products, variants, attributes, categories, collections, brands, UNSPSC and ETIM classifications, with data-quality checks.
- Search engine
- Instant, multilingual product search with facets, synonyms and tunable relevance, configured from the back-office.
- Media CDN
- Product images in seven views and six sizes, product notices (PDF) in each language and structured product data, served from a CDN.
- AI product descriptions
- Product descriptions written with AI, right from the back-office.
- Merchandising
- Showcases and store locators.
Take and fulfil orders
- Quotes, carts and orders
- Quotes converted into orders, recurring orders, and a view of every buyer’s open carts.
- Payments
- Card payment that never leaves a ghost order behind: the order is created when the buyer pays and cancelled automatically if the bank declines. Pay on account with each customer’s terms and credit limit.
- Shipping
- Carriers, zones and shipping rules.
- After-sales
- Buyers register their equipment with serial number and purchase date, see when the warranty ends and file a claim online with the invoice attached.
- Sell-out and replenishment
- Reorder suggestions based on what your customers actually sell.
Operate with confidence
- Built-in WAF
- Every request is filtered before it reaches the platform: probes of the admin area, requests for sensitive files, fake browsers. Malicious addresses are banned automatically, and you can ban one yourself in a click.
- Compliance
- VAT number and company checks, GDPR anonymisation.
- Multi-language, multi-currency, multi-tenant
- Each client is a configuration of the same platform, not a fork.
- API and notifications
- An API for your integrations, plus email and SMS notifications.
