With an EDI/M2M (machine-to-machine) connection, you can integrate automatic data exchange. To implement the relevant business processes, you need a specific connection and assignment between your ERP system and SupplyOn . You can choose between two communication channels: OFTP2 or AS2 via a secure internet connection.
The M2M / EDI mode is recommended for high data traffic between customer and supplier.
