Which OEM EDI formats does HublerX support?

HublerX can ingest OEM schedules in EDIFACT DELFOR, ANSI X12 830, and common Excel or PDF formats distributed via supplier portals. For OEMs using proprietary portal formats, HublerX can read the schedule via portal integration depending on portal access configuration.

Does HublerX update SAP work orders directly, or does a planner need to approve every change?

HublerX can be configured for either mode. For changes within defined tolerance bands — quantity adjustments below a threshold, sequence shifts within available capacity — work orders can be updated automatically. Changes that breach capacity or material coverage are always routed to the planner for approval before the ERP is updated.

What happens when two OEMs send conflicting schedule revisions on the same day?

HublerX processes each revision independently and surfaces any conflicts between OEM requirements and total available capacity as a consolidated exception for the planning manager — showing which OEM, which part numbers, and which capacity window is contested. The planner resolves the priority; HublerX updates both plans once the decision is made.

Can HublerX send the dispatch confirmation back to the OEM automatically?

Yes — for schedules where no exceptions are raised, HublerX can generate and transmit the dispatch sequence confirmation back to the OEM via EDI or portal upload automatically. Where exceptions exist, the confirmation is held until the planner resolves them and approves the response.

OEM Schedule Orchestration

HublerX reads OEM rolling schedules — via EDI, portal, or email — translates every revision into an updated production plan, and cascades the impact to material procurement, capacity, and dispatch without a planning meeting.
