What is the Datanorm format and how is it used for data exchange?

The Datanorm format is a standardized data exchange format commonly used in the construction and building materials industry. It allows for the exchange of product information such as prices, descriptions, and technical specifications between manufacturers, suppliers, and retailers. To use Datanorm for data exchange, companies need to ensure their systems are capable of importing and exporting data in the Datanorm format. 

// Example PHP code for exporting data in Datanorm format
$data = [
    'product_code' => '12345',
    'product_name' => 'Example Product',
    'price' => 50.00,
    'description' => 'Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet',
    'manufacturer' => 'Example Manufacturer'
];

// Convert data to Datanorm format
$datanorm_data = "ARTIKELNUMMER: " . $data['product_code'] . "\n";
$datanorm_data .= "BEZEICHNUNG: " . $data['product_name'] . "\n";
$datanorm_data .= "PREIS: " . $data['price'] . "\n";
$datanorm_data .= "BESCHREIBUNG: " . $data['description'] . "\n";
$datanorm_data .= "HERSTELLER: " . $data['manufacturer'] . "\n";

// Save Datanorm data to a file
file_put_contents('datanorm_export.txt', $datanorm_data);
