EDI process

Visma Business can help you to retrieve data that can be sent to an associate or retrieve data from an associate into the tables.

When exporting data to EDI, Visma Business's area of responsibility is limited to printing a document to file. You must ensure that an EDI translator is installed and that if necessary the file can be converted and sent to your business partner.

The same applies to the import of EDI messages. Visma Business requires the document (message) to be on file (in a defined format), ready to import into Visma Business. You must ensure that the file (i.e. the EDI messages) is retrieved from your business partner and placed on your hard disk.

Contact your dealer if you have any questions about EDI and EDI translators. Visma Business supports the import and export of several types of EDI messages.
