Business Challenge: Integrate Purchasing through ProcessOne EDI with Suppliers across Europe
One of our earliest ProcessOne EDI projects, there are a number of unique elements to this project.
- A multi country EDI procurement system
- ProcessOne EDI integrated with the IFS ERP software
- Integration of ProcessOne EDI with IBM® Sterling Gentran®
- ProcessOne EDI mapped to UN/EDIFACT
The customer, uses IFS for its purchasing, receiving and accounts payable. What the customer didn’t have was a means of getting EDI data from IFS to Gentran and Gentran EDI data into IFS. ProcessOne EDI was chosen to map between the two, using the EDIFACT standard.
