EDI - Electronic Data Interchange

At Mdd Capital Shipping, our 90 years in the freight shipping business has taught us to leverage the technologies needed to manage shipments more efficiently every day. We utilize EDI-Electonic Data Interchange as a means to facilitate the electronic exchange of business data through our systems. Using a standardized format, EDI provides a method of transmitting business data from one computer to another, without the need to re-key data. The use of this electronic data transfer link results in a more effective business transaction process. With our B2B software, Cleo Clarify, we can translate to and from the following data formats: EDI, XML, Spreadsheet, Flatfile, Database Table, & SAP iDocs. E-mail our EDI team for more information.

Mdd Capital's EDI platform utilizes the Cleo Clarify Business Integrator software tool set for both secure AS2 communications and document translation. OD is capable of communicating with our Business Partners using several communication protocols: FTP, sFTP (secure FTP), AS2 or any of the following Value Added Network (VAN) services.

  • IBM/Sterling Commerce
  • Descartes

With interconnects to most other VAN services.
