Expandable Software, Inc., the provider of enterprise software that helps growing manufacturers operate best-in-class business operations, announced today the release of its Electronic Data Transmission module providing a platform for Expandable ERP customers to transmit order-to-invoice information electronically between multiple Expandable ERP-to-ERP sites or for translation to standard EDI documents for trading partner transactional exchanges.
Through a partnership with SPS Commerce, Expandable’s Electronic Data Transmission (EDT) module provides a scalable solution for companies to rapidly implement both import and export capabilities for data rich translation and mapping into standard EDI documents. Purchase orders, sales orders, shipment information and electronic invoicing are all supported with integration to the Expandable ERP database and secure SFTP transmission.
“We are in the business of providing our customers with software solutions that facilitate high performance business operations,” said Dennis Payton, VP Product Marketing and Development of Expandable Software, Inc. “Our EDT product is a key component of our strategy to help our customers eliminate repetitive manual processes, maintain a high degree of accuracy, streamline trading partner interaction and gain revenue acceleration.”
The product was developed in conjunction with Expandable customers who trade through high-volume retail chains that encourage the use of EDI transactions. Strength of Nature, a Georgia manufacturer of innovative hair care solutions is the first Expandable customer to implement the EDT module, working with SPS Commerce’s strategic EDI services to interface with key high-volume trading partners.
“We’ve grown dramatically over the last few years and EDT is a key element of our strategy to maintain high productivity as our sales and shipping volumes escalate,” said Roy Holcomb of Strength of Nature. “We sell directly to major retail chains and distributors around the world and we’ve already implemented EDI with Walmart and Dollar General. We’re now preparing to roll it out with Target, Walgreens and Family Dollar.”
