After twenty years of assisting process manufacturers with their EDI transactions, eighteen months of software development and nine months in production at a food & beverage customer, ProcessOne is pleased to announce the general availability of P1 EDI.
P1 EDI offers a new way for ERP customers to manage their EDI transactions. No more managing flat files, paying for EDI translation services, hunting for and solving transaction errors, and resolving update errors in ERP.
P1 EDI automatically generates EDI X12 transactions directly out of your ERP system, posts them to your EDI service provider or trading partners, and correspondingly updates ERP with incoming EDI transactions. P1 EDI is a cloud-based application running on Microsoft Azure.
