Buyer SellerIndustry Challenges

• Unnecessary re-capture of B2B transactional data (slow and error-

prone) e.g.: Invoice and PO

• Employees spending time on B2B process transactions instead of

developing and enhancing business

• Customers need you to be on the platform defined by them

• Connect to all sizes of Business Partners

Business Challenges

• Common Framework for electronic business transaction with customers for improving supply chain efficiencies

• Slow management reporting and manual reconciliation

• Deductions and credits for mistakes

• Hours spent in paper administration

IT Challenges

• Using a standards based messaging framework

• Security and non-repudiation

The Solution: EDI Advantage with SAP PI and Seeburger Advantage

• The EDI adapter is used to receive messages from the customer’s EDI server or VAN mailbox.

• The EDI adapter converts the message from EDI format to XML format. It is also responsible for acknowledgements.

• The XML message is then mapped to the SAP standard IDoc.

• The IDoc then creates/updates the relevant SAP document (Sales Order).

• The same process is followed when a EDI message is to be transmitted to the Business partner. In this case, SAP IDoc is

converted to EDI message and transmitted by the EDI adapter.
