EDI Data Exchange Adds Value to Your Business

Mar 28, 2019

EDI data exchange is the best replacement for previous order processes, such as mail, fax or email. By organizations adapting and integrating EDI data exchange into their business, they are then able to electronically exchange documents with another company that uses a different internal system. EDI data exchange allows information to be translated and converted to the business application required and agreed upon between the trading partners, such as a buyer and supplier. EDI data exchange further allows companies to substantially shorten the order-processing cycle, thus producing a multitude of benefits, such as increased efficiency, increased order accuracy, increased production and more.

EDI data exchange

Offering a complete EDI solution means utilizing four basic components of EDI data exchange that every business needs in order to integrate EDI into their business:

  • EDI data exchange transfers data electronically from one organization to another, including orders, returns, notes, invoices, pricing, etc.
  • EDI uses a standardized language for transferring data, which allows organizations to share information in the same way. This can include X12, EDIFACT and XML.
  • EDI software creates a solution for organizations (sender and receiver) to share and manage information according to the agreed upon standard for interchanges.
  • EDI communications networks require secure communications systems, enhancing the security of data being exchanged, including the use of VANs (Value Added Networks)

If your business is still processing data manually, you are sabotaging your own business from inside. Manual processing is time-consuming, inaccurate and costly. The more time employees spend processing data, the more employers pay for a process to be completed that is less accurate than it should be.
