About the Timber & Hardware Exchange

This is an outline of the typical document flow between Trading Partners:

  1. Buyers procurement (or ERP) system will create a document and transfer it to a directory/folder that is accessible by Pacific Exchanger
  2. Pacific Exchanger will at a designated time pickup documents from this directory/folders and transfer it to the exchange. But before it transfers, the documents will be encrypted for security reasons and decrypted at the exchange by the communication module.
  3. Communication module will then transfer document to the Mailbox System and from there it will be placed in the suppliers mailbox and translated if required.
  4. Suppliers Pacific Exchanger will then pickup their documents from the Exchanger and place them on the defined directory/folder to be picked up by the suppliers ERP system for processing.
