Frequently asked questions
- What does it mean for an EDI solution to be certified for heterogeneous networks?
It means the solution has been shown to integrate the many different document types, messaging standards and system formats used across a genuinely varied trading network, rather than working with only one type of system or partner. GS1, which develops and maintains global business communication standards, specifically recognised this breadth when awarding its certification, covering everything from simple order messages to fully integrated system-to-system EDI.
- Is a certified EDI solution suitable for a business that is new to EDI?
Yes. A certified cloud-based EDI solution is designed to scale, offering a simple method for sending and receiving orders for a business that is new to electronic trading, through to a fully integrated EDI setup as that business and its trading network grow. This means smaller or newer traders are not locked out by complexity that is really only needed for large-scale integration.
- How widely is this certified EDI solution used in practice?
The certified solution is currently used in 50+ countries by around 12,000 users, processing 30m+ transactions a year between trading partners. That scale reflects the range of networks, systems and document standards the certification confirms it can connect, spanning businesses of different sizes trading electronically with partners anywhere in the world.
