EDI Integration

EDI Integration with Warehousing Partner

Enabled seamless, event-driven EDI integration between ERP and warehouse with fault-tolerant message handling, extensible design, and minimal operational overhead.

  • Retail client needed to streamline EDI message exchanges (POs, Inventory updates/adjustments, Sales Orders) with a 3rd-party warehouse.
  • Data was provided by warehouse via SFTP.
  • Asynchronous EDI workflows from a non-API-enabled partner.
  • Complex, bidirectional data transformation and validation.
  • Need for low operational costs, avoiding always-on services.
  • Must be robust and fault-tolerant, ensuring no lost messages.

We delivered a lean, event-driven architecture using a tightly scoped set of Azure services:

  • API Management: Exposed secure, versioned endpoints for ERP integration.
  • Logic Apps: Triggered automatically on new EDI file arrivals, orchestrating the flow.
  • Azure Functions: Performed fast, on-demand transformations to and from ERP-compatible formats.
  • Service Bus: Buffered and queued transactions to ensure reliability and retries.

The entire solution was built to run only when required, minimizing infrastructure and compute costs while ensuring enterprise-grade reliability.

  • Seamless, automated EDI exchange between ERP and warehouse partner
  • Event-triggered processing eliminates idle resource costs.
  • Robust message handling with built-in retries and fault tolerance.
  • Easy-to-extend architecture for future EDI message types
  • Delivered the required business outcomes with minimal operational overhead

Let’s build robust integrations together.
