Fishbowl Compatibility: EDI Solutions

So you’ve got a bunch of great products and you’re looking to make the leap into the big leagues, doing business with some of the biggest retailers, like Target and Wal-Mart. What’s the most important thing you need to get? An EDI solution!

Why EDI Is So Important

EDI stands for electronic data interchange, and it is incredibly important to wholesale distributors, manufacturers, and other businesses that ship lots of goods to retailers. Big retailers won’t even do business with you unless you have an EDI solution. What an EDI solution does is it takes all of the information about an order that you need to send to retailers and it formats it to meet their specifications.

Fishbowl’s Integration with EDI Solutions

Fishbowl is compatible with these EDI solutions:

• Chimp Key
• SPS Commerce
• TaraByte Solutions

Every retailer is different and they have their own unique forms. By using an EDI solution, you can gain access to new retail opportunities and make sure all of your T’s are crossed and I’s are dotted.
