My newsagency software company Tower Systems last year launched easyEDI, an absolute game-changer for sending invoices electronically.
Made for small suppliers, easyEDI set out to make creating electronic invoices easy and low cost.
Retailers love electronic invoices. They save time and money, and they help reduce data mistakes.
If faced with a choice, retailers will choose the supplier offering electronic invoices over the supplier of similar product who does not offer electronic invoices.
I mention it today since electronic invoices is a hot topic at the Melbourne Gift Fair this weekend.
easyEDI will create either a CSV file or a DD2 file, commonly used by newsagencies and card and gift stores. You can also link it with the popular Unleashed inventory management system we know plenty of suppliers use or supply your own product list so your files are even more useful by containing barcodes and/or RRP prices.
easyEDI costs $55 a month, which includes 500 invoices sent per month for no additional cost. Each invoice beyond 500 costs 12 cents.
There is no lock-in contract, you can cancel at any time.
Setup is easy for the supplier. easyEDI is a Xero approved integrated app.
Suppliers ready to sign up should go to www.easyedi.com.au.
Tower Systems first engaged in EDI (electronic data interchange) invoice creation by developing standards that were adopted for the Australian newsagency channel more than thirty-five years ago. Those standards formed the basis of file formats in use in the channel today.
While XchangeIT serves magazine suppliers and a some other suppliers, easyEDI is a lower cost and easier to implement solution. It’s made for small suppliers.
Suppliers and retailers using easyEDI today have taken the product beyond proof of concept and into the real world. It shows it as a reality, helping every day.
