Application examples for EDI mappings

There are a variety of application scenarios for the use of EDI mappings. In the EDI and EAI environment, EDI mappings are used to exchange data across different data formats between systems or partners.

Create EDIFACT file from the interface of the ERP

A mapping contains the instructions with which fields from the ERP interface database an invoice file in EDIFACT format is generated.

Interface communication with a document management system

The mapping transfers the header and item data from the incoming invoice processing to the DMS system.

Populate database from a WebShop with inventory information

The inventory information of a webshop is synchronized between two different database types (MYSQL & DB2) using a mapping

Telegrams of a PLC in the high-bay warehouse fills orders in the ERP

With the help of mapping, CSV files generated by the PLC during the storage and retrieval process are converted into the XML interface format of the ERP.

New customer requires X.12 data exchange

To acquire a new customer, it is essential to process his orders in X.12 format and transfer them to your enterprise resource planning system as an XML file, for example.
