When you land a deal with Walmart, Amazon and other big names, you need to be part of their supply chain management system.
Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) and Application Programming Interface (API) allow suppliers, vendors and customers to easily exchange electronic documents such as purchase orders, shipping notices and invoices.
In our experience:
EDI boosts speed by as much as 60%, taking minutes instead of days or weeks.
EDI slashes errors associated with manual data input by at least a 30% to 40%.
EDI cuts the time from order to payment by more than 20%.
How it works
EDI replaces the manual exchange of B2B documents. With EDI, documents flow directly from your customer (Trading Partner) to you within minutes. Everything is exchanged in real-time without faxing, mailing, e-mailing or manual entry.
| 1 | The buyer’s procurement system uses EDI to auto-generate and send an EDI-formatted PO when inventory reaches a specified level. |
| 2 | In minutes, your system receives the PO through upSpring.io. |
| 3 | Your system automatically notifies the shipping department to send goods. |
| 4 | Once the goods are packed and ready to ship, your system generates an Advanced Ship Notice (ASN) and upSpring.io sends it to your Trading Partner in the EDI-compliant format. |
| 5 | Your system automatically generates an EDI-compliant invoice and upSpring.io sends it to your Trading Partner. |
