EDI / B2B Mapping Services
Our experienced team can assist you with everything from your initial EDI maps, to enhancements, to ongoing map development.
Quality EDI Mapping is Critical
When it comes to B2B operations, EDI mapping and B2B translation are where the rubber meets the road. The detailed and intricate work involved ensures that the right information flows smoothly and seamlessly between businesses.
Whether the transaction is EDI, XML or any other format or protocol it is critical that mapping and translation is performed using a high level of accuracy and quality. Otherwise, valuable resources will be needed to fix the problems that result.
Some businesses may choose to perform mapping in-house. While this can be beneficial because the internal resource is already familiar with the business, often internal resources are limited and overburdened. Other businesses simply don’t have the skilled resources on their team to perform these services, and need outside assistance to help complete the work.
