Frequently Asked Questions

Q1. How does Elevate's ERP integration work?

No. Celigo is a software you use to build integrations. Elevate is a cloud EDI platform service that provides an interface to run your EDI transactions and connect with your ERP or any other backend software. We do the work so you don’t have to.

Q2. Do I need to install software in my ERP?

No. Elevate is cloud EDI software that integrates with your ERP via API connections. There’s no software to install or maintain in your ERP system. All EDI translation and processing happens in Elevate’s platform.

Q3. How long does implementation take?

Perfect. Unlike Celigo, which often requires a high entry price, Elevate allows you to start with one partner for just $750 as a one-time setup fee and minimum monthly fee and scale only when you’re ready.

Q4. What if my ERP isn't listed?

Schedule a discovery call with one of our EDI experts to discuss your ERP requirements. We’re actively expanding our integration capabilities and may be able to accommodate your system or add it to our development roadmap.

Q5. How does Elevate connect to my ERP?

Elevate uses standard API connections to integrate with your ERP:

– Acumatica: REST API and Contract-Based endpoints

– NetSuite: SuiteTalk (SOAP/REST API)

– Acumen: Flat File Integration

All connections are secure and don’t require installing any software in your ERP.

Q6. Can Elevate work with my custom ERP fields?

Yes. Elevate maps EDI data to your specific ERP configuration, including custom fields and workflows. EDI data flows to the correct locations in your system without requiring changes to your ERP setup.

Q7. Will integrating EDI disrupt my current ERP workflows?

No. Elevate is designed to work with your existing ERP workflows, not replace them. You continue to fulfill orders, ship, and invoice exactly as you do today. Elevate automates the EDI document exchange in the background.

Q8. Can I test the integration before going live?

Yes. We conduct thorough end-to-end testing with your trading partners before processing any live transactions. This ensures orders, shipments, and invoices flow correctly between the three systems.

Q9. What EDI documents does Elevate support?

Elevate supports all standard X12 EDI documents including:

– Inbound: 850 (Purchase Orders)

– Outbound: 810 (Invoices), 855 (PO Acknowledgements) 856 (Advanced Ship Notices), 846 (Inventory Updates)

Q10. Which trading partners does Elevate support?

Elevate supports all major retailers, distributors, and 3PLs that use EDI, including Walmart, Target, Amazon Vendor Central, Home Depot, Lowe’s, Wayfair, and hundreds of others. We handle both large enterprise retailers and smaller regional distributors as long as it’s the data that is being moved between systems.

Q11. How does Elevate handle different trading partner requirements?

Each trading partner has specific EDI compliance requirements. Elevate validates all outbound EDI documents against each partner’s specific requirements before transmission, catching compliance issues before they result in chargebacks.

Q12. What happens when trading partner requirements change?

Elevate’s support team monitors trading partner requirement changes and updates EDI mappings proactively. You’re notified of changes but don’t need to manage the technical updates yourself.

Q13. How easy is it to add new trading partners?

Adding new trading partners is a configuration process, not development work. Elevate handles the setup, testing, and ongoing communication for each new partner without requiring changes to your ERP.

Q14. How do I see the status of my EDI transactions?

Elevate provides real-time dashboards showing EDI transaction status. You can see when orders arrive from trading partners, when shipments send, and where exceptions occur before they impact your operations.

Q15. What happens if there's an error in an EDI transaction?

Elevate validates all EDI data before creating orders in your ERP and before sending documents to trading partners. If an error is detected, you receive immediate alerts with details about the issue so we can help you correct it before it becomes a problem.

Q16. Does Elevate handle EDI chargebacks?

Elevate helps prevent chargebacks by validating all outbound EDI documents against trading partner requirements before transmission. This catches compliance issues (missing data, incorrect formats, timing problems) before they result in costly chargebacks.

Q17. Can I process EDI transactions in real-time?

Yes. Elevate can process EDI transactions in real-time as they arrive or on a scheduled basis for high-volume operations. The sync timing is configurable based on your business needs.

Q18. What kind of support does Elevate provide?

Elevate handles all EDI translation, validation, and trading partner communication. Our support team monitors your EDI operations, manages trading partner requirement changes, and provides ongoing assistance as your business grows.

Q19. Is my data secure?

Yes. All data transmission between Elevate and your ERP uses secure API connections. All business data remains in your ERP instance. Elevate only stores transaction logs needed for monitoring and troubleshooting.

Q20. What if my ERP is updated or upgraded?

Elevate maintains compatibility with current ERP versions. When your ERP is updated, we ensure the integration continues to work without disruption.

Q21. Can Elevate handle high transaction volumes?

Yes. Elevate is built to scale with your business. Whether you process 100 or 10,000 EDI transactions monthly, the platform handles growing volume without performance issues.

Q22. Does Elevate work with cloud and on-premise ERP systems?

Yes, Elevate can work with both cloud or on-premise ERP systems as long as the ERP offers a way to connect through APIs or flat files.

Q23. How does Elevate pricing work?

Elevate offers a transparent pricing model based on your EDI transaction usage with a one-time ERP integration fee if you choose to connect an ERP. No hidden costs or annual contracts.

No. Elevate does not require any type of contract to be signed. You can scale up or down as your business needs change. We earn your business month by month.

Q25. What kind of support do I get from the Elevate team?

Elevate becomes your external EDI department, providing end-to-end support for your EDI operations and ERP integration.

This includes proactive monitoring, trading partner requirement updates, and ongoing configuration support as your business grows.
