EDI Integrations for NetSuite

Electronic Document Interchange (EDI) has helped companies eliminate paper-based communications by automating and streamlining business-to-business (B2B) communications for over 30 years. The use of standard EDI formats throughout the supply chain — from manufacturers, distributors, retailers, fulfillment providers, and other trading partners — has allowed retail companies to fulfill orders faster, cheaper, and with fewer errors.
