Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) Certification Testing

Our self-service, web-based portal allows vendors to reach EDI certification status in as little as one business day.

Why EDI Certification Matters

Electronic data interchange (EDI) certification is essential for maintaining competitive advantage and operational efficiency. It ensures suppliers comply with your technical and informational requirements, facilitating smooth and error-free data exchanges.

Without proper certification, businesses risk encountering data quality issues such as EDI Format, Layout, and Content failures that can cause operational disruptions, which can lead to delays, losses, chargebacks, fines and damaged relationships with trading partners. By ensuring that your suppliers are EDI-certified, you can confidently expand your trading network and focus on driving revenue growth.

How York Overcomes Challenges in EDI Implementation

For decades, retailers have sought 100% EDI compliance but have faced challenges due to unexpected implementation errors, data inconsistencies and lengthy onboarding processes. Suppliers often make mistakes, inundating retailers with issues and increasing support efforts and costs. York Worldwide addresses these problems with a highly comprehensive approach to EDI certification and testing:

• Thorough implementation process: York identifies and resolves potential EDI issues, and bugs before suppliers move to live EDI trading. This testing process minimizes unexpected errors and reduces support demands on your team.
• Quick turnaround: Our streamlined processes and dedicated certification support team enable faster EDI certification while maintaining focus on EDI document and EDI process accuracy. Suppliers can achieve compliance in as little as one business day, accelerating your integration timeline.
• Scalable solutions: Whether a small business or a large enterprise, York’s EDI solutions scale to meet your needs.
