Trading Partner Series: EDI Integration for GHX with MS Dynamics GP and SL

GHX was created in 2000. Their goal is to standardize the way that the heath care industry transacts by managing the transactions and data format for all their partners. A single connection to GHX gives you the ability to send electronic documents to over 3,600 hospitals and suppliers. GHX requires the following base EDI transactions if you are a supplier that is joining GHX.

850 – Purchase order

855 – Purchase order acknowledgement

856 – Advance ship notice

810 – Invoice

With GHX, you will go through an extensive testing process where they will validate several best and worst case scenarios. This testing process is a little more thorough than most trading partners, but the benefit is that you will not have to retest the documents when adding a new partner though GHX.

Please feel free to contact me should you have any questions in regards to integrating GHX EDI with MS Dynamics GP or SL. Also if you are interested in more information on GHX, feel free to email me and I will pass you along my contact’s information.

Cheers,

Jay

EDI Trading Partner Series

Hi All,

I will be launching a new series of articles that go through the EDI requirements of some of the major trading partners like Walmart, Target, Sysco, GM, etc. This will give you a good opportunity to learn a little about your trading partners and also find new trading partners that your company can deal with. Look for the first trading partner to be up today or tomorrow.

Thanks,
Jay
