It reduces, and in some cases, removes the need for repetitive manual processes to allow for faster order processing and fewer errors. EDI may refer to either an online web portal or an integrated connection involving files being transferred over a secure transmission method (FTP, SFTP, AS2, VAN, etc.). It usually involves inbound and outbound documents for both the retailer and the supplier depending on the specific requirements of the company you are trading documents with. It is important to maintain compliance with each specification to ensure all updates are processed without delays.The Benefits of EDIMinimizes ErrorsIncreases ProductivityIncreases Order VisibilityCuts CostsAutomates Order FulfillmentReduces Response TimesReduces Customer Service Follow UpEliminates the need to print and store paper copiesExpedites invoice processingIncreases inventory visibility for drop shipsReduce transmissions times for order data and updatesIncreases Efficiency in Order ProcurementCamping World’s EDI Document FlowCamping World’s Program OverviewCamping World has partnered with SPS Commerce to execute all EDI tasks related to vendor onboarding, including testing, setup and production support.

To support this requirement, SPS Commerce will provide all vendors with a 45-day complimentary subscription to their online Fulfillment site. The site will allow vendors to be EDI compliant within 1-2 business days and to start receiving orders as soon as possible. If additional testing and certification is needed for vendors using their own third-party EDI provider, the site will be available until testing is completed with SPS Commerce.If you decide to complete testing and certification through your existing EDI provider, we encourage you to complete testing on all available order types to avoid additional testing in the future. We currently support bulk (ship to DC/store), cross-dock, and drop ships. Please let us know if you do not support any of these order types.Our EDI specifications and store list can be found at merchandise buyer will provide you with a setup request form to complete and will submit an internal request to begin the onboarding process. SPS Commerce will contact you to provide the initial login details and discuss long term EDI solutions with you.Long term solutions include assuming responsibility for the web account once the complimentary trial is complete or moving to a testing phase to use your own EDI services and trade EDI formatted documents with SPS Commerce for our connection. File SpecificationsEDI relies on specific standards to ensure data is accurately translated and can be successfully transmitted between trading partners.
