Get Arcus PricingWhat Is Acumatica EDI Integration?
Acumatica EDI integration lets Acumatica exchange purchase orders, advance ship notices and invoices with your trading partners automatically, so orders arrive as sales orders and shipments and invoices go out without anyone re-keying them.
With Arcus, incoming EDI documents such as 850 purchase orders are translated and created directly in Acumatica, and the shipments and invoices you create in Acumatica automatically send 856 advance ship notices and 810 invoices to your partners. Arcus connects through the Acumatica REST API, and an Arcus customization package adds EDI functionality natively inside Acumatica.
