    Business-Focused Data Transformation

    ActionEDI's mapping solution bridges the gap between your internal business systems and the standardized formats required by your trading partners. Unlike technical mapping solutions that require specialized programming knowledge, our approach puts business users in control with intuitive visual tools and pre-built templates.

    Whether you're receiving purchase orders, sending invoices, or exchanging inventory updates, our mapping platform handles the complex data transformations required for seamless communication with your entire trading network, regardless of the systems or standards they use.

    Powerful Features, Intuitive Design

    Our EDI mapping solution combines powerful transformation capabilities with an easy-to-use interface, making complex data mapping accessible to your entire team.

    Visual Mapping Interface

    Create and modify maps with our intuitive drag-and-drop interface. No coding required to build even complex data transformations.

    Pre-Built Templates

    Get started quickly with our library of pre-built maps for common business documents and trading partners, including major retailers and distributors.

    Bidirectional Transformation

    Convert both inbound documents (orders, inventory updates) to your internal formats and outbound documents (invoices, shipping notices) to EDI standards.

    Field-Level Validation

    Ensure data quality with comprehensive validation rules that identify and handle exceptions before they cause issues.

    Custom Business Rules

    Apply complex business logic and conditional transformations based on document content, trading partner requirements, or other variables.

    Version Control

    Track changes to your maps with full version history, allowing you to easily roll back to previous versions if needed.
