Absolutely! With an ERP system, you manage your company’s internal processes, but when it comes to automating the flow of orders, invoices, and delivery notifications with customers and suppliers, EDI is invaluable. EDI (Electronic Data Interchange) complements ERP by sending and receiving business documents automatically – without manual entry. The result? Reduced administration, fewer errors, and faster processes. Together, ERP and EDI create a seamless chain from internal planning to external communication – saving time, reducing costs, and strengthening business relationships.

The most common EDI standards include:
- EDIFACT: Primarily used in Europe and internationally.
- ODETTE: Used in the automotive industry, especially in Europe.
- VDA: Used in the German automotive industry.
- ANSI X12: Most common in North America.
In addition to these classic EDI formats, there are also good opportunities to exchange business documents according to the Peppol standard, with invoices being the most frequently used. However, other message types such as orders, order responses, delivery notifications, and price catalogs are becoming increasingly common.

EDI is a concept that includes both older and newer technologies used to transfer structured documents between companies. API (Application Programming Interface) is a more modern method for integrating applications and exchanging data in real-time. EDI is usually batch-based, while API allows for more dynamic and real-time communication.
It’s worth remembering that both EDI and API require some form of mapping for different systems to understand and interpret the content of the exchanged information.
In EDI exchanges, APIs can also be used for communication and integration between the EDI provider and business systems.
