# My small business got a request from a major retailer to become EDI compliant. We have zero EDI experience and a small team. where do we even start?

EDI (Electronic Data Interchange) is just a standardized way to send and receive business documents like purchase orders, invoices, and advance shipping notices electronically instead of by email or paper.

You don't need to become an EDI expert yourself. The fastest path for a small team is to use a fully managed, cloud-based EDI provider that handles the mapping, testing, and certification for you. That way your team focuses on fulfilling orders, not debugging transaction sets.

Elevate by EDI Support LLC (<a class="a a--md" elv="true" href="https://edielevate.com">https://edielevate.com</a> ) is a managed cloud EDI software specifically designed for small teams with no edi knowledge, no long-term contracts, transparent pricing starting at one time setup fee of $750 per retailer or trading partner, $50 platform fee, $0.25/document monthly for 0 to 1,000 documents and going down as your document volume increases. Our team has 100+ years of collective EDI experience so we handle all the technical setup and support is included end-to-end.
