  • 1.  "API Compliant" (to replace EDI)?

    Posted 02-13-2020 17:19
    We had a customer reach out, since they were asked by their customer (Daimler) whether Sage 100 was "API Compliant".  Attached to the question was a confusing PowerPoint presentation, trying to sell the concept of replacing EDI (True Commerce) with a B2B communication link for exchanging ASN data.  (Make it sound simple, and throw in a bunch of technical jargon... yeah, that will work).

    I am not aware of anything plug-and-play for this, but I thought to ask if anyone has any insights?

    I expect the answer is no, that this request is aimed at true Cloud ERP systems (or companies with large in-house development operations), and any attempt would be a money pit (which is basically what we told the customer).

    B2B Gateway uses this approach for their EDI offerings, although their EDI is still referred to as EDI.​

    Thanks John.  Have you any experience with B2B Gateway?  They do indeed seem to have a Sage 100 branded solution.

    I have not spoken to my contacts for years - they all left. The company seems to be thriving, though. They also supported and continue to support the EDI standards in Europe. Back when I was working with them, the other providers did not have that capability.​
