Trade Documents Electronically Using EDI with B2BE
Trade with all your trading partners electronically on B2BE’s EDI Network.
Product Overview
Secure Environment
The B2BE managed EDI network is a secure and reliable communication infrastructure and environment for the transmission of electronic documents and data.
Automated Documents & Data
Handles the translation, mapping, enrichment, and validation of the documents and data. It creates a highly efficient automated and integrated environment that is managed by B2BE.
Standardization
It removes the need to allocate specific resources, hardware, or the requirement for software. All your organization needs are to be able to send and receive data in a format you can handle.
Key Features
Any Document Formats
B2BE’s EDI product enables you and your trading partner to exchange EDI documents in any format. It can be an industry-based standard like UN/EDIFACT, ANSI X12, cXML, or a proprietary format.
Any Protocol
It easily handles any transmission protocol including SMTP (email), (S)FTP, HTTP(S), AS2, Web Services, and many others.
Any Requirement
B2BE sends and receives electronic documents and data securely over the internet from your network via the B2BE EDI network to a trading partner’s environment. It can also send into a trading partner's EDI provider’s network - based on everyone's requirements.
Document Validation and Workflow
As documents are processed through B2BE’s EDI network B2BE can automatically validate your trading partner’s document content based on a set of defined business rules or for tax requirements. Only after validation and translation is it sent to your business system, removing exceptions and slow delivery turnaround times.
Validation for Taxes
Document validation is ideal when your organization is receiving invoices from suppliers and need to ensure they have complied with your business requirements and regional taxation laws.
Data Enrichment Ensures Integration
If your trading partner cannot send all the data needed for complete integration, the B2BE EDI environment can automatically enrich or transpose the data in the document.
Document Visibility and Auditing
The B2BE EDI environment is supplied with access to the online Customer Center which has full document visibility with tracking functions and audit trails. This useful tool is a single point of information for all relevant documents that have transmitted through the B2BE EDI environment and can be configured for your organization’s employees to access.
Alerts and Reporting
B2BE’s automated notifications can let your organization know when an important event occurs (or doesn’t) so you can deal with them quickly and efficiently.
Monitoring and Service
B2BE’s systems teams monitor the network 24 x 7 so you don’t need to worry about it. Similarly, B2BE’s support personnel can be contacted for any queries if they arise.

Client Testimonials
“The Warehouse Ltd. has improved
Order accuracy through the
elimination of keying errors. The
Web Portal has reduced costs
creating and processing Invoices,
both for TWL and for our
suppliers.
”If our clients can produce a file
in any format and get it to B2BE
they’ll build the translation maps
and transfer it to our format. That
works in reverse with our
invoicing. Some ERP systems
autofax so we get them to
produce a file which is sent by
email to B2BE who convert it for
us
“The uptake from suppliers has
been extremely positive with
less than one percent not
wanting to progress this. Under
the old model 99 percent of all
orders were confirmed by faxing.
Long-term, the portal will
remove this tedious step which
increases the work efficiency of
the purchasing team.”
“ B2BE really offered a service that was a world
leader. It helped to drive down the costs per
transaction, from several dollars down to 40 cents
or less, and on top of that, adding value in terms of
allowing organizations to easily connect with us
“At one time we faxed thousands of Purchase
Orders a day, and just cutting back on all that paper has been an immediate benefit. Somebody had to pick up all those faxes, and they got lost or the data wasn’t entered correctly.
“The fact that we can give the problem as a whole to
B2BE and then leave them to sort it out for
themselves has been very helpful to us. A single
PO might be going between several servers in
Australia and New Zealand, but I don’t want to
know about that. I just want to know that the order
has been fulfilled and B2BE takes care of that.”
