We have enhanced our outbound EDI offering by introducing the Corporate Comprehensive EDI screen. In this screen, you can subscribe to receive the following message types to a central location regardless of customer.
- DEBTORS INVOICE XML
- EXPORT COMPREHENSIVE XML
- IMPORT COMPREHENSIVE XML
- IMPORT CUSTOMS ENTRY XML
- ORDER XML
- SHIPMENT XML
This functionality is suitable for sites that want to feed data from Expedient into their Corporate Global system.
The message types have the same structure as the equivalent version generated from the Customer Outbound Interface screen.
