Who can we help? Large, medium, and small companies...
» Companies with multiple trading partners (suppliers or customers) who want to streamline invoice processing or order entry by providing their trading partners with alternative methods of invoicing or order entry that suit their trading partner’s technology and comfort level. The goal is to eliminate manual processing and human intervention that occurs when invoices or orders are mailed, faxed or emailed in hundreds of different formats. Once your trading partner enters their data through one of our solutions and sends it to our offices, we convert their data and deliver it to you in whatever format you require for automatic processing by your computer systems.
» Companies who are EDI-compliant – who can’t automatically process POs, invoices or any other transactions from their EDI trading partners because the same EDI transaction sets are different from one company to another (everyone uses a different flavor).
» Companies who are partially EDI-compliant – who use us to send other EDI transactions to their EDI trading partners.
» Companies who are not EDI-compliant – who order product from many EDI trading partners. Each PO is converted into whatever EDI data format is required.
» Companies who are not EDI-compliant – who receive POs from many EDI trading partners. Each EDI data format is converted into the PO format that can be processed.
» Companies who are not EDI-compliant – who want to do business with one trading partner who is EDI-compliant and that’s the only way that trading partner will do business.
How do we bill for our services?
Pay-per-use (fee per transaction) and in some cases, development fees.
Who gets billed?
» If you are a company with multiple trading partners, i.e., customers – usually you pay for development and transaction fees.
» If you are a company with multiple trading partners, i.e., suppliers – either you provide our service to your supplier group and re bill your suppliers (after we discount our transaction fees to you) or each supplier pays us directly by the transaction.
» If you are not EDI-compliant or partially EDI-compliant and are dealing with multiple EDI trading partners and have to send your data by EDI – usually you pay for development and transaction fees.
» If you are not EDI-compliant and you are interested in using our services with one of our current trading partners, you pay us for each transaction.
