E-business – digital Process automation with erzet

EDI – automating business processes with erzet automate

Instead of sending orders, invoices, inventory or price lists, transport data, etc. in paper form or as PDF attachments and processing them manually, we automate standardized business processes with EDI. This avoids errors caused by manual entries, relieves employees of routine tasks, reduces language barriers, and lowers throughput times and process costs.

Our project team creates a customized communication concept for our customers and takes care of everything from the initial consultation to the go-live. On request, erzet also harmonizes the existing article master and takes care of the initial comparison of the article master data. We then work with our customers to define the number and type of messages, as well as the communication protocol and the message standard to be used. The configuration is implemented via our Lobster interface/connector and the system is prepared for the productive start in a subsequent test phase.

erzet EDI solutions are of interest to medium-sized companies, corporations, and public institutions.
