What is Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) ?

Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) is a standard protocol used in the business world that enables businesses to exchange commercial documents (orders, invoices, shipping notes, etc.) in electronic format in standardized formats

EDI eliminates the need for manual data entry, speeding up business processes, reducing error rates, and facilitating collaboration

  • The Key Components of EDI

  • Data Formats: EDI documents are created in a specific standard format. These formats are determined based on the type and content of the document (e.g., ORDERS, INVOICE, DESADV, etc.).
  • Protocols and Communication Channels: EDI documents are transmitted between business partners through standardized protocols (OFTP, AS2, FTP, SFTP, etc.).
  • The Use Cases of EDI in SAP

  • Order Processes: It allows customers to electronically submit their orders directly to the SAP system, resulting in faster processing and reduced error likelihood.
  • Invoice Processes: EDI enables the automated processing of invoice documents and their rapid transmission between business partners.
  • Inventory Management: It allows suppliers to transmit inventory information directly to your SAP system, making inventory tracking more efficient.
  • Shipment and Logistics: Processing shipment information, shipment tracking, and delivery notes through EDI optimize logistics processes.
  • Müşteri Hizmetleri ve İade İşlemleri: Customers can transmit returns via EDI, speeding up the process and providing more efficient customer service.
  • Customer Service and Returns: Processes such as invoice payments, cost analysis, and financial reporting can also be conducted through EDI.

In conclusion, EDI streamlines, accelerates, and automates business processes, facilitating collaboration and data exchange. SAP provides a powerful platform for efficiently managing EDI processes.
