Decco EDI overview
Decco EDI is the structured exchange of commercial documents between Decco and businesses working in UK home, furniture and improvement retail supply. The agreed document set starts with orders and invoices, with the operational emphasis on reducing manual processing across trade and retail supply workflows.
