I get a lot of questions about our ePortal offering and the features and benefits that it provides for MS Dynamics GP 10 EDI integration so I thought this would be a good time to explain the solution and what it can do for your company.
The ePortal solution from eBRIDGE Software is a web based product that eliminates the need to manage and maintain the software that is required for EDI. With the ePortal you receive the benefits of having a translator and mapper without the headaches.
ePortal not only takes care of the software that is required for EDI but it allows removes the need for 3rd party communications. ePortal has the ability to connect to any trading partner using the method that is requested by that trading partner. All communication methods are supported, whether the trading partner requires AS2, FTP or VAN communication.
When dealing in the EDI world, communications are always followed by charges to use those forms of communication. ePortal gets rid of all transaction fees, kilo-character charges and interconnect costs while allowing clients to send unlimited transactions for a low annual fee. That annual fee not only includes transactions but it also includes unlimited data storage.
Through ePortal documents can be viewed and printed at anytime from any PC in the world that has internet and web browser access. Not only does logging into ePortal give you the ability to print documents that you receive but it allows provides web forms that allow you to manually create outbound invoices, advance ship notices and purchase orders. The web forms are provided as a back up solution in case of technical issues with MS Dynamics GP.
eBridge for MS Dynamics GP 10 is a client application that handles the import and export of the EDI documents to and from MS Dynamics GP 10. eBridge is scheduled to monitor ePortal for new EDI documents and, when received, the documents will be transmitted via secure FTP and integrated into MS Dynamics GP 10.
The adapter for MS Dynamics GP 10 follows the same business rules and logic that is included in MS Dynamics GP 10. For example, the adapter will verify customers exist, customer balances and terms, products and pricing. Once a document has been imported into MS Dynamics GP a log file will be emailed stating what occurred.
The bridge will also be scheduled to monitor MS Dynamics GP 10 for any new invoices or purchase order acknowledgements and send the documents to ePortal to be sent off to the trading partner.
