Microsoft EDI Integration & Transactions
Benefit from automated communication between your EDI and Microsoft ERP system.
Microsoft ERP Integration
EDI and ERP are vital to integrate business data and processes into a single slick setup. Here at Data Interchange we offer integration with the following Microsoft products: Dynamics AX, GP, SL, NAV and Business 365.
By integrating your ERP with EDI, you will enable a smooth process of business data transmission. Plus, Data Interchange will setup and test all your EDI connections to your trading partners offering easy EDI connectivity.
Your Microsoft ERP will be able to receive business data automatically from any EDI transmission, speeding up processes and increasing accuracy. Therefore improving the efficiency of your business.
Our Value Added Network, DiNet, knows when a document import is successful and can update exported documents to Microsoft ERP to show they have been successfully received by the trading partner.
Data Interchange's approach to EDI ERP integration
With over 35 years of experience developing data communication solutions that automate the exchange of business documents, at Data Interchange we understand a one-size-fits-all approach to integration doesn't work. That's why we produce a tailored plan based on the unique business processes and trading partner requirements of our customers, creating systems and procedures that can be easily updated and maintained.
Benefits of EDI ERP Integration
Increase productivity
Following effective integration, EDI and ERP solutions can provide your organisation with improved agility and better data quality. The result is a significant reduction in manual processes which can in turn increase employee productivity.
Enhance communication
EDI and ERP integration solutions work to virtually eliminate paper-based document transfers both internally and with customers. This allows critical information to be shared far more responsively, reducing procurement costs and streamlining buying processes.
Greater visbility
Integrating EDI and ERP provides organisations with improved supply chain visibility. This makes it possible to process orders faster, minimise lead times, accelerate the order-to-cash cycle and facilitate onboarding processes for new EDI-enabling customers.
Eliminate errors
The automation our solutions provide virtually eliminates human error and reduces process times.
Develop relationships
Resolve order and invoice issues with accurate information to improve customer service relationships.
Reduce cycles
Improve cash flows with quicker document turnaround times and reduce the order-to-cash cycle.
Improved customer service
By implementing EDI alongside ERP, you can deliver more efficient customer service, and improve both customer satisfaction and revenue. Our solutions allow you to quickly answer customer questions, resolving processing or billing discrepancies efficiently.
Considerations for a Microsoft ERP EDI Integration
When it comes to your EDI solution, one of the most critical projects is integrating your back-office ERP and EDI systems. When integrating Microsoft ERP and your EDI system, there are 4 focus areas you should fully explore during the process.
Before embarking on an integration project, it's important to review your existing setup. Is it fit for purpose, working well today and future proof?
Do you have resources available for EDI (both connectivity and message standards) and ERP integration.
It's difficult to get EDI & Microsoft ERP expertise, so consider if you have the required in house expertise or if you need to outsource.
Be clear on who will be owning what and how much support will be required.
Is there a change of ERP in the Strategy? Or maybe an upgrade is looming… make sure these are all considered in the project. Is your EDI provider capable of managing any future ERP requirements you may have?
