Unite Product Information Connector

Sales Layer PIM syncs your Unite catalog fast. Map once to BMEcat, reuse templates, and update listings without rebuilding files. Control quality, automate checks, and keep every channel aligned so your team launches complete, compliant products in days, not weeks.

Top benefits of using Sales Layer
for Unite

Publish Unite-ready catalogues faster

Create a Unite-ready catalogue straight from Sales Layer. Map your fields to BMEcat once and let the template auto-populate from clean product data, assets, and PDFs. Buyers who need a live view of current data can use PunchOut via OCI or cXML. When specs or prices change, keep the mapping, schedule re-exports, and stay current. Teams go from draft to live in days, cut copy-paste work, and avoid the back-and-forth that delays launches.

Control what you list and its quality

Choose the exact assortment by brand, family, or category, and set the language per market. Quality Score and workflows flag missing images, tech sheets, SDS, or CE marking before export, so only complete items go out. Variant parents and children stay tidy, media links are consistent, and reviewers find fewer issues. You publish with confidence and reduce support tickets tied to bad or old data across regions.

Standardize once, scale across channels

Keep a single source of truth for SKUs, variants, attributes, media, and documents. Map once to Unite and reuse the same model for marketplaces, eCommerce, and distributors. Teams can bulk edit at scale, audit change history, and roll back when needed. Use connectors or the API for custom flows. No more rebuilding spreadsheets, you get a predictable, reusable way to list everywhere. Content remains consistent across channels and cuts mismatch.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can our marketing team run this without IT?

Yes. Set up the Unite feed in the UI, upload the BMEcat template, map fields, and schedule refreshes. Quality Score flags gaps before export. Starter checklists and saved mappings make repeats simple. After go-live, catalog managers handle updates, while IT only steps in for ERP price or stock feeds if you choose to connect them.

Will this work if we already use PunchOut on Unite?

Yes. Keep product truth, media, and eligibility rules in Sales Layer, then serve buyer-specific assortments through Unite PunchOut via OCI or cXML. Pricing and availability can stay in your ERP or eProcurement. Buyers build baskets on current data, send them for approval, and return to order. Orders and invoices keep flowing outside the PIM.

How do variants, media, and compliance docs map over?

Model families with parent and child items in Sales Layer. Send images and file URLs in the BMEcat so Unite can display galleries and documents. Store translations, units, and regional PDFs like CE, DoP, or SDS with each SKU. This keeps sizes, finishes, and packs clear, and reduces review comments.

Can we export different assortments per buyer or country?

Yes. Build channel views in Sales Layer and filter by brand, family, category, or tags. Pick the language per export and attach regional files like CE, DoP, or SDS. For PunchOut, present contract assortments to each buyer. For BMEcat, save multiple mappings and generate separate files.

How do we control access and approvals?


Role-based permissions govern who edits, approves, and exports. Quality Score and required fields prevent incomplete items from publishing. Change history keeps every update traceable.
