EDI (Electronic Data Interchange)

Allows order entry and inventory access 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.

We want to keep you on top of your competition. Industry wide, EDI stands for Electronic Data Interchange and an increase in business efficiency. Operations such as purchasing, billing, order acknowledgments, and shipment notification can be done with EDI at Rexel CLS.

As electronic commerce continues to skyrocket, people are realizing they have to adjust. Technology is not slowing down. For your company to survive you must surrender to the technologies that are on the rise.

We have both larger and smaller companies taking advantage of the time EDI can save. We have 31 vendors and customers who participate in EDI, including:

• Northeast Utilities
• Philips
• Thomas and Betts
• Lithonia
• Wiremold

Why EDI?

• EDI lowers your transaction cost by automating your business transactions.
• Eliminates errors.
• Gets rid of the repetitiveness and monotony of activities.

How it Works

EDI transfers information to a VAN (Value Added Network) similar to a post office. This transfer of information is secure without interference of data transfer. All information is encrypted and error free.
