Your integration will occur more swiftly because Integrator has adapters for popular ERP systems such as Oracle’s E-Business Suite R12. The intermediate files match, yet anticipate customization of header and detail records. Unfortunately, use of adapters does not complete the link.
On the EDI side customization is needed of customers. DCS has templates for industries and their leaders, such as mass merchant Target’s 4 types of P.O. (850): (Distribution Center, DC “cross-docked”, Store, and Home). Templates contain the data transmission protocol too. Lastly, the Business Process Modeling Language (BPML), which also must be customized for each customer, is ready.
EDI/E-Commerce and application integration can provide ROI’s well over 100% when it is done right. Planning is the key. Our DCS NEXT LEVEL™ conversion service is standardized to ensure a thorough, quick, and economical solution. The knowledge of how the business operates pays off handsomely with assistance from DCS EDI specialists.
New SI users will find a week or so of training helpful. DCS ELITE™ training service ensures you know how to utilize SI’s functionality and benefits as well as help you avoid the pitfalls associated with SI.
