EDI provides the computer-to-computer exchange between businesses of standard trading documents in an electronic format. This exchange typically takes place via the internet. Within K8, EDI standardised documents can be transmitted
and received electronically across sales, purchasing and accounts functions; without the need for manual intervention. This offers potential savings in time, accuracy, control and money by eliminating manual handling.
Getting started with EDI
Kerridge Commercial systems partner with a number of EDI trading providers. They manage the translation of the K8 standard messages into the appropriate formats for other systems. Kerridge will advise as to the trading partner solution that is most appropriate for given types of business, transaction volumes and document types.
