WebEDI Makes Connecting and Doing EDI Faster for Buyers and Suppliers


With WebEDI from Edict Systems, suppliers can avoid the high costs associated with in-house EDI and instead benefit from a low-cost alternative. WebEDI offers an easy-to-use platform for receiving purchase orders and generating invoices, purchase order acknowledgments, ship notices, and other critical EDI documents. The platform is cloud-based and user-friendly, making it easy for businesses of all sizes to adopt and use.

For buyers, WebEDI helps suppliers become EDI-capable quickly, allowing the buyer to maximize the number of EDI trading partners. This increased supply chain efficiency results in better communication between trading partners and fewer errors, reducing the need for manual intervention. WebEDI also offers the ability to export data to QuickBooks, making it easy to manage finances and streamline accounting processes.
