Looking to automate your business document exchanges? The Orchestrade® B2B platform allows you to manage all your EDI projects with all your business partners, from ordering to invoicing, with your customers, suppliers and other partners.
Why integrate an EDI solution for your digital transformation?
Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) is one of the fastest and most reliable ways for companies to exchange documents in a standardized format, regardless of the technologies and applications used in each partner’s information systems.
EDI is crucial for connecting company management systems, enabling data exchange without re-keying. Combined with the purchasing or sales cycle, or for relations with carriers or logistics platforms, this solution improves operational performance and multiplies business capacity

The benefits of deploying an EDI solution for your digital transformation
Deploying this solution is an essential step in accelerating your digital transformation and streamlining your Procure-to-Pay (P2P) and Order-to-Cash (O2C) cycles. Implementing EDI offers numerous advantages.
Reduced costs and lead times
EDI reduces the cost of paper, ink, envelopes and stamps. What’s more, automated exchanges speed up and streamline document processing, resulting in significant time savings.
Reliability and fewer disputes
EDI increases the reliability of information exchanges by eliminating the need to re-enter data. This reduces errors and improves data processing speed, making the overall process more efficient.
Increased efficiency
The dematerialization of documents via electronic data interchange enables time-consuming tasks such as order entry or item-by-item checking of incoming deliveries to be automated. This frees staff from these repetitive tasks, enabling them to concentrate on higher value-added activities and thus improve their productivity.
Improved cash management
EDI helps to reduce the “Order-to-Cash” cash flow, which improves cash management and strengthens budget management. This enables companies to better manage their finances and optimize their financial resources.
Strengthening business relationships
EDI facilitates and improves transactions with business partners, including orders, invoices and deliveries. This ensures faster, more reliable exchanges, consolidating collaboration with customers and suppliers.
Competitive advantage
Using EDI gives companies a competitive edge by improving transaction efficiency and strengthening business relationships. Companies can offer their customers better service and stand out from the competition.

The tool also enables us to track Crouzet’s outbound flows. From there, we can obtain traceability and we also have all the documents (original document from the customer, original document from Crouzet, translation between the two). The platform enables us […] to pool translations, rationalize the number of workflows and translators, and address as many customers as possible.

Concrètement l’EDI, abréviation d’Échange de Données Informatisé ou Electronic Data Interchange, désigne un système qui permet d’échanger des données par voie électronique. Il remplace les processus « classiques » d’échange de documents papier et permet leur automatisation. L’EDI s’applique principalement aux échanges de données externes à l’entreprise qui l’utilise pour communiquer avec ses partenaires commerciaux et donc dématérialiser ses transactions commerciales (commande, avis d’expédition, facture, etc.). Dans ces transactions, les informations sont transférées directement de l’application informatique d’une entreprise (par exemple, un ERP) vers l’application informatique d’une autre. Cet échange s’appuie sur des messages standardisés, structurés destinés à transmettre un type d’information (commande, avis d’expédition, facture, etc.).
