CDMV is a Montreal-based distributor of veterinary products. As a distributor, they order products from a number of pharmaceutical/healthcare manufacturers. Most of these suppliers are EDI-compliant, and so require that their customers use EDI to order product. CDMV did not have an EDI system in house, so they turned to Faxinating.
CDMV could only supply Faxinating with a printed purchase order direct from their accounting system. However, this setup was sufficient for the FS Printegrator service.
FS Printegrator
Once installed, instead of printing the Purchase Order onto paper, CDMV now used the FS Printegrator print option, which shows up in their list of installed printers in their accounting system. The FS Printegrator launches and the user is able to transfer the file directly to Faxinating.
Once Faxinating receives the file, the data is extracted, logged, verified, sent to the supplier as an EDI purchase order.
The beauty about this form of EDI outsourcing is that Faxinating handles all aspects of the EDI relationships, from new setups, to standards changes, to VAN migrations. CDMV is not impacted in any way by the typical aspects of EDI relationship managment.
The Benefits
The benefits are obvious. CDMV is able to get their orders out without having to implement or manage EDI. Their trading process is efficient, timely and very cost-effective. For more information or to schedule a free demonstration, contact our sales team at 1-800-282-6283 Ext. 232 |
