What is EDI (Electronic Data Interchange)?
If you’re wondering ‘What is EDI?’, you’ve come to the right place.
For decades forward-thinking companies have used EDI software to automatically swap and process vital paperwork (such as orders, invoices, and shipping notes).
Now, cloud-based EDI gives companies like yours the chance to follow suit and finally drop slow and expensive paper-based processes.
No more searching around for the latest order or head-scratching over the status of a credit note. EDI sorts all of this out.
EDI safely takes care of the admin, automatically delivering the high-quality information your business needs to grow.
It is a real-time, secure, transparent and seamless way of managing orders and accompanying documentation across your entire trading network.
