Industry Solutions Focus: EDI

Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) is the exchange of transaction data (like purchase orders and invoices) in the form of standardized electronic documents. EDI transmission can save time and costs and improve accuracy in the supply chain, but most companies find one compelling reason to implement EDI solutions: their large retail customers require EDI as a condition of their supplier contracts. Integration of EDI data to and from the accounting and distribution management system further streamlines order fulfillment and payments to suppliers.

Five important factors for consideration when choosing an EDI system are:

  1. Ease of setup and ease of use - find a compehensive system with an intuitive interface and flexibility to accommodate your infrastructure and your transaction needs.
  2. Accounting System Integration - importing and exporting data to and from your accounting system saves time and reduces errors.
  3. Transaction Fees - Fees may be per transaction or monthly. You may be billed per item, per line, or per order. Clarify the fee structure and budget accordingly.
  4. Support and Maintenance Fees - Is vendor support responsive and effective? What, if any, are the annual fees for support and software updates?
  5. Scalability - will you have the ability to add users and trading partners as needed. Your customers require you to be responsive; how quickly can you have new partners added to your system?

Since no one system fits every client's needs, Blytheco experts work with multiple EDI vendor solutions. We assist our clients in choosing the highest-quality and most cost-effective integrated EDI systems for their needs, and our experienced consultants ensure the solution is implemented optimally.
