Webstore EDI overview
Webstore EDI is the structured exchange of commercial documents between Webstore and businesses working in retail, wholesale or marketplace supply. The agreed document set starts with orders and invoices, with the operational emphasis on keeping order and invoice records aligned across operational teams.
A practical Webstore integration should connect orders and invoices with the systems responsible for processing them. XEDI maps the agreed Agreed EDI format messages into ERP, warehouse, accounting or API workflows, while validation and alerts help teams deal with exceptions before they affect delivery or payment.
Every document validated before it moves
XEDI checks each Webstore order, despatch advice and invoice against the required format, so errors are caught before they reach your systems.
