Connect EDI Broker and Global Shop Solutions

Connecting EDI Broker and Global Shop Solutions could enable the automated exchange of business documents, such as purchase orders and invoices, between trading partners and the company’s ERP. This connection could help reduce manual data entry, improve transaction accuracy, and support more efficient order processing across the organization.

You can build this integration on the System2System platform. We design the connection between EDI Broker and Global Shop Solutions around the way you work — not as an off-the-shelf connector, but to fit your systems.

Why connect EDI Broker and Global Shop Solutions?

A company operating both an EDI Broker and Global Shop Solutions could benefit from enabling these systems to exchange data. Such a connection could reduce the need for manual data entry, which often results in duplicated efforts and increases the risk of errors. Without a connection, data in each system may diverge over time, leading to discrepancies between what is recorded in one system versus the other. This can result in business decisions being made based on outdated or incomplete information, which may affect customer satisfaction, inventory management, and financial reporting. If these systems were connected, the types of data that could be exchanged would depend on their respective roles. An EDI Broker is commonly used to facilitate the electronic exchange of business documents such as purchase orders, invoices, and shipping notices with external partners. Global Shop Solutions is an ERP platform, widely known for handling manufacturing, inventory, order management, and financial processes. Data that could be relevant for exchange may include sales orders, shipping information, inventory updates, and invoice details, supporting smoother operations and improved data accuracy across the business. The specific data that can be exchanged depends on what each system exposes through its API and must be determined individually for each situation.

How System2System builds an integration

Connectors

We connect to each system through the interface it offers — an API, a database, a file exchange or a webhook — and handle authentication, rate limits and retries.

Mapping

Fields rarely line up one to one. We map and transform the data so both systems receive it in the shape they expect.

Workflow

We define what triggers an exchange, in which direction data flows and which system takes precedence when the two disagree.

Monitoring

Every exchange is logged. Failures are flagged and can be replayed, so nothing disappears without anyone noticing.

What can actually be exchanged?

That depends on what EDI Broker and Global Shop Solutions make available through their APIs, on the licences and modules in use, and on the version each system runs. Which records are synchronised, in which direction and how often, is something we determine together before any work starts.

We are happy to look at your specific situation and tell you what is feasible — including when the answer is that it is not.
