batch e4books accreditation
Batch has renewed its accredited status as an e4books service provider for 2008. If you use Batch and order electronically you could become accredited too.

Because Batch allows all booksellers and suppliers to trade electronically with only an internet connection as a requirement, Batch users can streamline their supply chain communications and make use of the opportunities for efficiency that the use of ecommerce brings.

For booksellers it means being able to receive electronic invoices, make payments and claims and provide an electronic remittance to suppliers as well as using the Industry Returns Initiative.

Download a simple guide to find out what e-commerce solutions exist for booksellers, from ordering to paying or returning unwanted orders.

If you do most of your ordering in an electronic way, you could become accredited too. See the forms on the BIC website for more information.

Suppliers of all sizes can use Batch to reach a large number of customers, even the smallest suppliers can provide EDI via Batch to their customers.
