Email-to-EDI Automation: Save Hours Every Week
Manual data entry is still the norm for many small and mid-sized suppliers. When a customer sends a PDF purchase order by email, it kicks off a tedious process—open the email, download the file, re-enter everything into your accounting or ERP system, double-check for typos, and maybe even reprint it for your warehouse team.
The Problem with Email POs
Email-based purchase orders are everywhere, but they’re a time trap. Each one can take 10–30 minutes to manually process. Multiply that by 20–50 orders a week and your team is losing 10–25 hours every week on low-value data entry tasks.
Enter Email-to-EDI Automation
With ActionEDI’s Email PO Automation, those same orders are parsed and translated into structured EDI documents—automatically.
- No portal logins.
- No rekeying of data.
- No missed orders due to inbox chaos.
Instead of downloading files and typing into your system, ActionEDI captures purchase orders directly from email attachments (PDF or Excel), extracts the necessary data using AI-powered parsing, and converts them into EDI-compliant documents ready for downstream workflows—like invoice generation, shipping labels, and inventory updates.
Real Time-Savings. Real Results.
Companies using ActionEDI’s Email-to-EDI automation report:
- 70–90% less time spent on order processing
