The single biggest concern of any EDI implementation is the amount of additional work it will place on a business. Implemented properly EDI can bring tremendous cost savings and benefits of automation and aggregation of transaction processing. Implemented poorly, however, EDI can quickly become a nightmarish cost center that simply makes trading with your larger trading partners expensive and labor intensive.
At EMANIO we understand that this very core problem is at the root of most unsatisfied EDI users. That's why Trading Partner was built from the very beginning to be an automation engine. With Trading Partner you can quickly and easily put as little or as much intelligence and automation in your process saving you time, headaches and money.
With this task-based workflow you can create a multitude of EDI processing workflow. Send and receive EDI by trading partner type, by connection type or any mixture you see fit - EMANIO Trading Partner makes creating the exact communication and translation workflow you need quick and easy.
Of course, even with the best of setups exceptions happen. During those unlikely events you need a platform that will proactively warn you that something has changed. That's why Trading Partner lets you create automated email alerts to notify you of any number of events - from documents not being sent out as scheduled to standard notifications when everything is working fine.
Automation in Trading Partner also continues to the document level. With Trading Partner you can quickly and easily turn inbound purchase orders around and create and send invoices with complete automation - removing the manual process completely from your workflow.
Finally, Trading Partner also gives you the flexibility to process events based on the presence of a file. Have your ERP or accounting system automatically drop a dummy file in a pre-determined directory and Trading Partner will see it as a trigger that will send out Advanced Ship Notices, Invoices or begin any process you see fit. |
