ONESOURCE is a certified integrator for ERPs such as SAP, Oracle and Infor, delivering reliable end-to-end integration as part of our solution.
Globally accessible product database
Disparate databases are a risk to import and export product classification accuracy. A central, cloud-based repository acts as a single version of truth. It allows for the creation and sharing of product information securely throughout the organisation to classify accurately across all geographies.
A single place to search
For exports, you have the ability to browse the deep ONESOURCE Global Trade Content database to select the correct Export Control Numbers (ECN) or munitions list numbers. Link directly to dual-use lists in the native language and English to determine country-specific export requirements.

Centralised classification platform
To keep goods flowing seamlessly across international borders, trading partners need accurate and timely product classification data. With a centralised classification platform, every trading partner with internet can access accurate Harmonised System codes anytime during a supply chain transaction, reducing the chance of delayed shipments, penalties, and other late fees.
Multi-country classification
Save time by cascading data elements from a global WCO classification profile or one country profile to other profiles. ONESOURCE Global Classification also assists in the use of ONESOURCE Global Trade Content to classify SKUs en masse.
Leverage AI to save time
Automatically compare unique information, such as product attributes, weights, measures, trademarks, Chemical Abstracts Service (CAS) codes, etc., with the WCO Harmonised System (HS) database — which contains more than 5,000 products — to link the product to its correct HS number accurately.
Smart ECN offers access to the most current export control information. The organisation can be confident it has made the correct classification decisions while avoiding costly export control penalties.
Smart ECN search
Look at products you have assigned ECNs to historically and compare them with the products you would like to classify to find similarities. The tool recommends the best ECN matches, ranked by how closely the products with that ECN match with the product criteria. Then, scan the descriptions and select the ECN.
HS codes to ECN numbers
If you have previously classified the product with an HS code, our tool can use that information to provide correlated ECN numbers — for those countries that publish HS to ECN correlations — ranked by frequency of HS-declaration association. Then, you can scan the descriptions and select the ECN.
