EDI Integration
Industry-standard message exchange — railroad (161, 418J), retail (X12 810, 850, 856), healthcare (270/271), and the custom carrier-specific variants.
EDI is one of the oldest forms of B2B integration still in heavy use — and one of the most particular. Every trading partner has their own implementation quirks, retry semantics, and acknowledgment expectations. We've spent years learning where the bodies are buried.
Standards We Implement
- Railroad industry — EDI 161 Trainsheet, 418J interline settlement, 404 transportation orders, 410 freight invoice, and AAR-specific variants.
- Retail / supply chain — X12 810 (invoice), 850 (purchase order), 856 (ASN), 855 (PO acknowledgment).
- Logistics — X12 204 (load tender), 210 (motor carrier invoice), 214 (shipment status).
- Healthcare — X12 270/271 (eligibility), 837/835 (claims and remittance) — note: HIPAA scope applies.
Transport Layers
- AS2 (with signed/encrypted MDN receipts)
- SFTP / FTPS
- VANs (Sterling, GXS/OpenText, IBM)
- REST/JSON gateways (for modern partners moving off true EDI)
- Industry-specific networks (e.g., Railinc for rail)
