Infor XA Services & Consulting

When investing in an ERP system like Infor XA, we understand the value of knowledge. We offer specialized expertise and consulting services in Infor XA, IBM i, and Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) to guide businesses in making informed decisions and maximizing ROI.

As developers of the Infor XA Electronic Commerce (EC) module and the new Enterprise Electronic Commerce (EEC) module, which leverages the Infor Development Framework (IDF) and offers the same EDI capabilities, we have a deep understanding of its functionalities and provide comprehensive support to businesses.

  • EC to SPS Commerce Integration: EC/EEC customers can directly send and receive EDI documents to and from SPS Commerce, a leading cloud-based EDI provider for retailers. This eliminates the need to install translator software like Trusted Link/Open Text or Extol/Cleo on IBM i. As a result, you can implement EDI with new trading partners more efficiently.
  • UCC Label Web Service: If trading partners require GS1-128/UCC-128 labels, you can create labels using our web services to communicate shipment information. Once the containerization is complete via our easy-to-use interface, a PDF is generated with the appropriate labels and unique serial number required on the Advanced Shipment Notice. The serial number is then integrated directly onto your Advanced Ship Notice (ASN) transaction satisfying the trading partner’s need for labeling on all shipment containers.

Our support goes beyond implementation. We provide essential management and integration services, ensuring smooth operation and integration with existing systems. Our custom software development services also tailor the ERP system to meet specific business requirements. This level of customization enhances operational efficiency and contributes to bottom-line improvement.

Further, we offer self-service portal development. Our Enterprise Access (EAX) portal, running on IBM i, facilitates convenient access to enterprise data for customers, sales reps, suppliers, employees, and more. This empowers businesses to enhance their operational capabilities by providing employees and stakeholders with convenient access to relevant information and functionalities. By leveraging self-service portals, companies can improve communication, increase productivity, and enhance operational efficiency.

Our Infor XA Customer Order Management Solutions offer two key functionalities: COS (COM Offline Shipping) and Release Management. COS enables efficient container creation, packing, and shipment finalization. Transactions can be submitted via scanner software or other interfaces, updating the IBM i database. Release Management handles planning schedule EDI transactions (830) and shipping schedule EDI transactions (862) from your trading partners, primarily in the automotive industry. It automatically adjusts customer orders to match partners’ planning and scheduling information, ensuring timely shipments and synchronized workflows. These solutions optimize shipping operations and enhance efficiency in managing trading partner interactions.
