Question on: DiCentral EDI & Supply Chain Solutions
[How do i integrate EDI with Quick Books](/discussions/16243-how-do-i-integrate-edi-with-quick-books)

we need to streamline our PO receiving process and if we could integrate it with Quickbooks, it would be a tremendous help. Also does DI Central do business with Snyder's of Hanover?

As a certiﬁed QuickBooks partner, DiCentral has developed a proprietary EDI adapter for QuickBooks to ensure quicker implementation, more predictable costs and a greater return on investment. DiCentral’s QuickBooks integration enables organizations to fulﬁll large quantities of EDI transactions locally while leveraging cloud-based EDI mapping, business rule management, and transaction visibility.

Question on: SPS Commerce Fulfillment EDI
[What is the best way for us to respond to error codes when the problem may seem unclear? q](/discussions/14541-what-is-the-best-way-for-us-to-respond-to-error-codes-when-the-problem-may-seem-unclear-q)

I've contacted SPS directly a few times about error codes that don't correlate to any obvious issue and they're usually unable to help or tell me. Is this something that needs to change on the business end from businesses sending an order, or is this something SPS should look into to clear up?

I have found the EDI viewer tool here https://ediviewer.ediacademy.com/Home/Upload to be invaluable. It's free to use (just have to create an account) Download the offending errored text file from SPS Reporting, save it and upload it to this site. Most times it will show you in red what is bad. If not, then it is almost always a missing reference (REF\*DP\*01 Department number, but no dept number listed where REF\*DP\*02 should be, SKU listed, but no LIN\*SK\* listed, etc) When in doubt, you can also try searching for "\*\*" (Two asterisks) in the text file. There shouldn't ever be 2 in a row and if there is, something is missing.

Question on: SPS Commerce Fulfillment EDI
[Why do companies still use this?](/discussions/14447-why-do-companies-still-use-this)

I don't understand why large retailers use this type of connection still, why not use API? API is the smartphone and EDI is the good ol' flip phone.

We've found that many retailers use both, choosing the one that best fits their business need. E-commerce retailers, especially those using drop-ship, often use APIs for inventory feeds and other small data points that are communicated frequently, while using EDI for longer form transactions with suppliers. SPS offers entrepreneurs and other suppliers a full-service solution that is flexible and can work with a variety of means to communicate including APIs, EDI, file transfers and more. They do not have to concern themselves about which retailer uses APIs and which ones are using EDI, the solution manages this complexity for them so they can focus on their business. SPS has been working with APIs for years, with many published in our DevCenter, as well as working with the numerous APIs in use by retailers of all sizes.
