As part of the cooperation with Ceramika Paradyż, EDITEL is responsible for operating and further developing a comprehensive EDI environment, covering communication with retail chains, logistics partners, and international recipients. The scope includes a full set of EDIFACT and XML messages, including: ORDERS (orders), ORDRSP (order confirmations), DESADV (dispatch advices), INVOIC (invoices), and RECADV (receiving advices).
EDITEL also maintains and enhances translation maps and connections that enable fully automated data exchange with key partners such as Castorama, Hornbach, Kingfisher, and Leroy Merlin.
In addition, Ceramika Paradyż uses SAFE, EDITEL’s digital document archive, which ensures secure, legally compliant storage of EDI documents and e-invoices. This solution supports audits, accelerates access to data, and improves internal document management.
By centralizing its EDI operations with EDITEL, Ceramika Paradyż now benefits from a stable, scalable integration environment that supports efficient collaboration with trading partners, reduces the risk of transmission errors, and automates key logistics and financial processes. The system is also fully prepared for integration with Poland’s National e-Invoicing System (KSeF) — the next milestone in the company’s journey toward end-to-end digital document management.
Digitization as a strategic direction
The EDI implementation has significantly improved day-to-day operations across the sales, logistics, and finance departments. The entire order-handling process — from order receipt through dispatch documentation to invoicing — now runs smoothly and reliably. Automation has allowed teams to focus on higher-value tasks instead of manual data entry. Collaboration with business partners has also improved noticeably.
Initial skepticism toward the new solution quickly gave way to acceptance, and today the vast majority of Ceramika Paradyż customers are served via EDI.
Implementing EDI represents an important step in Ceramika Paradyż’s broader digitization strategy. The company plans to further expand automation — both through integration with KSeF and by onboarding additional trading partners.
“We see the implementation of the EDI system as a strategic step in the digitization of our business processes,” says Radosław Kacprzak, Head of IT Systems Maintenance and Development at Ceramika Paradyż. “It delivers cost savings, improves customer service quality, and strengthens our market position by aligning us with modern e-commerce standards.”
Thanks to its cooperation with EDITEL, Ceramika Paradyż has joined the group of companies that use EDI as the foundation for efficient, scalable collaboration with business partners.
