Hello and Happy new year!
We are a small company that produces 10 SKUs food products. Recently we have contracted to use a 3rd party warehouse to do the drop ship of our SKUs to the grocery & convenience stores we sell to.
The problem is that all our software will produce is a PDF release order. Not EDI. Our system is not capable of generating any EDI because its a internal system and we can't change it (easily). The warehouse says they need an EDI X.12 release order in order to do this. They will not accept PDFs.
Is there a software out there that will convert my release order to the appropriate X.12 EDI and then send it to the warehouse? I'm told they want a EDI 940.
Do companies do this? or do they all suck up the huge cost to "go EDI"?
Many thanks in advance.
Prasad.
