Overview

From purchase orders and quotes to loan applications and invoices, businesses in B2B manufacturing are required to manage a considerable volume of paperwork. Done manually, filling out and transmitting these documents is incredibly time-consuming. Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) first emerged several decades ago as a solution to this problem.

Unfortunately, early EDI solutions were far from perfect. They were often incredibly error-prone, even more than manual paperwork. This was only exacerbated by their relative complexity.

Problem

Sodastream moved away from their in-house Microsoft Dynamics NAV ERP system to cloud-based Netsuite ERP and needed to upgrade their integrated setup to set up the connectivity with Netsuite and migrate all of their existing EDI data and business processes into the new integrated process.​

Solution

Tangentia’s Solution: Tangentia utilized Tangentia Gateway to setup their connectivity with their global trading partners and to seamlessly integrate their EDI orders, shipments and invoices with Netsuite.​

Our Impact

Sodastream has successfully migrated into Netsuite and has been efficiently processing their huge volume of orders from multiple sales channels via the new integrated EDI process with Netsuite that allows real-time transaction flow between their trading partners.​
