Electronic Data Interchange (EDI)
Summit’s Electronic Data Interchange allows for efficient electronic communication via a value-added network (VAN). EDI is available for large corporate customers and manufacturers who request it.
EDI transactions offer key competitive advantages, such as:
- Improved accuracy in transactions
- Increased order efficiency
- Synchronized product and pricing data
- Reduced expenses like manual data entry, processing costs and handling costs
- Improved accounts receivable/payable processing
