Elevate your EDI performance.
In theory, EDI order processing should be perfect — it isn’t. The lack of visibility, the limited process flexibility and the headaches caused by exceptions are all-too common.
Esker fixes these issues by centralising all orders, including EDI, in a single location, ensuring full visibility over the orders and improving processing through machine-learning technologies that can automatically correct obsolete part number or detect unusual quantities. By turning a machine-readable order into a human-readable version, CSRs no longer need IT support to simply understand an order or resolve an issue.
- Apply the same business rules to all orders
- Transform EDI flat files data into easy-to-read PDFs
- Eliminate the need for IT support
- Process IDoc, X12 and EDIFACT standard formats
