About Exporting HP Data
HP PurchasEdge is an easy-to-use program that provides rewards for purchasing original HP (Hewlett Packard) supplies.
HP rewards points for each qualified purchase made. Once enrolled, users receive access to the PurchasEdge web site where points can be redeemed online for free HP products, including printers, digital cameras, and PDAs. Users enjoy exclusive HP promotions as well as a personalized website, quarterly statements and many special offers.
PurchasEdge has been designed to help you build stronger relationships and drive supply sales by rewarding your customers with free HP products. To track HP product information, ECi has created a new program for use by HP PurchasEdge participating dealers. This program creates an output file that contains customer contact information as well as total sales dollars for HP products. By exporting the data to a file, you can target those customers who purchase less than a specified sales amount. After the data is exported, you can forward the file to HP, who in turn, can assist you with marketing campaigns targeted to increase HP product sales to the customer. You run this program in the (Z) System Utilities screen. When you do, you can limit the procedure to specific company prefixes, invoice dates, sales amounts, and journalized files. After the program is executed, the system creates an output file with the information you specified. When viewing the file, some fields may be noted as not applicable, but are included as a blank space to maintain the file layout as requested by HP. Once built, you forward this data to HP according to their instructions.
