Horticultural format

Description

The Horticultural format was from the Association of German Tree Nurseries - Servicegesellschaft mbH (BSG) for the electronic data exchange between: tree nursery ↔ tree nursery, tree nursery ↔ dealer, tree nursery / dealer ↔ landscaping company.

With the * .gbf files, various business processes, e.g. Sortiment, offer, etc. are exchanged:

  1. Nursery Catalog Trunk (BCS)
    • contains all information about the plant: botanical name, trade name, qualities, etc.
    • can be purchased from BSG
    • can not in the plant stem of DATAflor BUSINESS Imported

  2. Sortimentsfile
    • serves for the electronic transmission of the entire plant sensortiments a nursery to the dealer
    • does not contain any plant names or qualities, only IDs of the plants and graduated prices
    • A prerequisite for the import is an existing tree nursery catalog trunk (BKS), ie can not in the plant stem of DATAflor BUSINESS Imported
    • Extract of an example file: first column contains the plant IDs


  3. Offer file
    • serves to transmit the range of plants from a tree nursery to the GaLaBau company
    • contains plant names, qualities, etc. as well as the prices at which the tree nursery offers the plants to the landscaping company
      • Line type 000 = sender and recipient
      • Line type 110 = seller address
      • Line type 300 = transaction item with plant name, quality and offer price
    • can be found in the plant stem of DATAflor BUSINESS Imported

      At the beginning of the season, request an offer file from your tree nursery so that you can use their current offer and prices for the calculation.

The BSG also provides the horticultural format in XML format for data exchange. This is from DATAflor BUSINESS not yet supported.
