How do 5000+ shops save time and money?

In 2021, more than 21 million documents are exchanged in the biggest EDI network Telema in Baltic States. Processing this amount of orders, invoices and other trade documents requires a reliable solution. The time and effort it would take to manually enter this data is huge. This raises the question: How have over 5000 shops (and restaurants) managed to automate their data exchange process?

Automation brings value

What is EDI?

Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) is the exchange of trade documents between trade partners in machine-readable format. In Baltics, EDI is widespread in the FMCG sector in automated data exchange between suppliers and retailers. EDI connections allow transfer of electronic orders, invoices, despatch advices, receipt advices and other trade documents. EDI connections ensure the smooth flow of goods from suppliers to the shops.
