Streamlining Manufacturing: The Power of Boomi EDI

Table of Contents

Electronic Data Interchange or EDI is a foundation to modern B2B organizations. EDI acts as an invisible information highway, allowing documents to flow seamlessly between various stakeholders. EDI enables automated flow of documents such as purchase orders, invoices and shipping documents in a standardized digital format. EDI eliminates the need for manual data entry, reduces sources of error, cuts down delays and streamlines transactions between various stakeholders such as manufacturers, suppliers, distributors and retailers in a Manufacturing setup. In today’s age where manufacturers strive for just-in-time inventory and try to maximize profits, the ability to seamlessly and automatically exchange information is a necessity.

Why is EDI important for manufacturing companies?

Even after advances in EDI technology, many manufacturers continue to use legacy EDI systems which slow down many aspects of the business. Most of the outdated legacy EDI systems are on-premises and struggle to keep up with the rapid pace of cloud solutions. Due to their inherent weaknesses, on-prem systems cannot integrate seamlessly with modern cloud based applications. In today’s age, where most business processes have moved to the cloud, legacy EDI applications are siloed and require manual intervention.

Business processes that can be achieved quickly with modern systems, become stretched and inaccurate. For example processes like onboarding new stakeholders, visibility across supply chains such as order tracking, inventory management, etc., becomes tedious and inefficient. This results in loss of precious time and profits. Also industry standards and compliance requirements are ever evolving and incorporating these changes becomes a daunting task with legacy systems.
