What is EDI?
Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) is the computer-to-computer exchange of business documents in a standard electronic format. Instead of emailing a PDF purchase order or faxing an invoice, EDI encodes those documents in a structured text format that both sender and receiver systems can parse automatically.
EDI eliminates manual data entry, reduces errors, and is required by most large retailers (Walmart, Target, Amazon), healthcare payers (Medicare, Blue Cross), and 3PLs. If a trading partner tells you "we only accept EDI," SignalEDI is what you use to become EDI-capable.
