Iceland-Specific Requirements

Orders in, invoices out.
The detail is in the rules.

Iceland's flow looks straightforward on paper. The work is in the supplier and location codes, the tolerance rules on every invoice and the format Iceland expects each message to follow. Get any of it wrong and you eat a deduction. Supply Lens is configured for those rules out of the box.

Direct connection

Iceland receives supplier documents through a direct connection. Supply Lens manages the certificates, the partner profile and the gateway on your behalf, so you have no gateway of your own to build, run or maintain.

Message format handled

Iceland uses the long-established UK retail message format, as most large UK retailers still do. Supply Lens generates and reads it correctly so the format stays invisible from your ERP's point of view. The order just arrives.

EAN to item code mapping

Iceland identifies products by GS1 EAN and an internal article reference. Supply Lens maintains a cross-reference table mapping both to your own item codes, so the PO lands correctly in your ERP regardless of which identifier Iceland sends.

Invoice tolerance rules

Iceland applies strict invoice matching on price and quantity. Supply Lens validates the invoice against the originating PO and your agreed cost list before transmission, flagging any discrepancy for review rather than sending it and risking a deduction later.

Distribution centre routing

Each Iceland PO names a destination DC by code. Supply Lens maps every active Iceland location to the correct routing in your warehouse system, so the order lands against the right depot in your ERP without manual intervention.

Cost list and pricing rules

Your agreed Iceland cost list is registered in Supply Lens. Promotional pricing, cost changes and tier breaks are all applied automatically when an invoice is generated, so the price Iceland sees on the invoice always matches what was agreed.

Document Flow

Every document.
Every direction.
Automatically.

Supply Lens handles the full Iceland document set inbound and outbound, so documents are produced and transmitted automatically, without manual rekeying.

  • Purchase orders received and validated against your supplier profile
  • Invoices pre-validated against the PO and your agreed Iceland cost list before transmission
  • Credit notes raised and transmitted when returns or adjustments occur
  • Tolerance, location and pricing rules applied per message automatically
  • All Iceland-specific document structures generated and read correctly without your team seeing the format

Configuration

Configured for Iceland.
Connected to your
system.

Supply Lens holds Iceland's rules and the connection itself so you don't have to. Your team provides credentials, product mappings and the agreed cost list. Everything else lives in the Supply Lens layer.

1

Iceland supplier onboarding

Your Iceland supplier code, GLN and trading partner profile registered with Iceland's gateway. Supply Lens manages the connection identifiers and certificates, so there is no setup needed your side.

2

EAN and article cross-reference

Iceland EANs and article references mapped to your item codes. Pack-size variants, promotional lines and multi-pack SKUs are handled automatically once their cross-reference is established.

3

DC routing and entity mapping

Each Iceland DC code mapped to your correct warehouse, customer account or entity in your ERP, so orders route cleanly to the right despatch point on receipt.

4

Tolerance and pricing rules

Your agreed Iceland cost list registered for invoice validation. Tolerance rules applied per supplier agreement, so price discrepancies surface your side first.

Iceland Edge Cases

The situations that
catch suppliers out.

Supply Lens handles the scenarios that typically cause invoice rejections, deductions or document mismatches in the Iceland flow.

"Iceland send documents in a format our system cannot read. We've been doing it manually for months."

The format never reaches your system. Supply Lens turns Iceland's purchase order into a clean payload your ERP already understands and renders your outbound invoice in the structure Iceland requires on the way back out. Your team works in their normal interface, the format conversion happens in the Supply Lens layer.

"Iceland deducted against an invoice because the unit price was a few pence off the agreed cost list."

Invoice values are validated against the originating PO and your agreed Iceland cost list before submission. Discrepancies are flagged before the invoice is sent, giving your team a chance to correct or query rather than receive an Iceland deduction weeks later.

"A new Iceland promotional line started arriving and our system rejected the order because the price didn't match."

Promotional pricing is held against your Iceland cost list and applied per line at invoice time. New promotional EANs map to existing items where possible. Any unmapped reference goes to an exception queue immediately rather than rejecting the order outright.

"A new Iceland EAN started arriving and our system rejected the order because the product wasn't mapped."

Unrecognised EANs go to an exception queue immediately. The PO is held, your team is notified with the full Iceland context, the mapping is added and the order is re-triggered. No silent drop, no late invoice, no missed delivery window.
