Benefits
of using ISG/Bethlehem's EDI system
In
covering products and services utilizing the ISG/Bethlehem EDI
system, considerable efficiencies can be realized.
For example, use of material release transaction
merges directly with the work scheduling flow and can reduce
lead time necessary to produce an order by several days.
Transmission of an order status report not only
provides up-to-date information, but also reduces lost time
in multiple telephone conversations.
Shipping schedules and requirements can be matched
more efficiently. Invoices
are processed in an electronic format which can be
interfaced directly into accounts payable systems.

ISG/Bethlehem
EDI is fully integrated with our marketing control system.
This allows order to be fully processed…from entry through
shipment to invoicing and payment. Data once entered is never reentered. Output information is internally processed, without manual
intervention. Complete accuracy and timeliness are assured.
A
Program for Partnership
Integration
of ISG/Bethlehem EDI into your operations is the ideal way to
begin electronic commerce.
While a standard format provides the foundation “rules”
for trading, the key element in a successful partnership is
the electronic program which is shared.
Once established, the wide range of transactions
enables you to expand to other vendors who are utilizing the
X12/EDIFACT format. Our expertise and assistance make the difference.
Your
operations may not be ready for, nor require at present, a
full EDI integrated package. EDI trading partners can implement a full or partial package to suit
their needs. We
are capable of processing the full range of EDI
transactions. ISG/Bethlehem’s
staff will match available resources and requirements with
you. In
addition, high priority transactions for other specific
needs are continually being developed as the total program
expands. ISG/Bethlehem EDI never becomes outmoded…. only updated!
