The EDI Challenge
Manual Processing Costs Time, Money, and Accuracy
Small Businesses Face Big EDI Challenges
Without automated EDI processing, supply chain teams face significant operational burdens:
- Staff must manually open, read and interpret each EDI email
- Complex EDI formatting requires careful, error-prone data extraction
- Time-consuming copy-paste operations delay order processing
- Inconsistent processing times depend on staff availability
- High-volume periods increase the risk of missed orders
These manual processes can consume 5-10 hours weekly for a typical logistics coordinator, creating a substantial operational bottleneck and increasing error rates by up to 30% compared to automated solutions.
