EDI-intensive sector
Batches, expiry dates and variable weights: the data that fails your messages
Remediation of food and beverage EDI flows, where traceability, variable weights and date constraints complicate every message.
What breaks in this sector
- Batch numbers and expiry dates do not reach the messages correctly.
- Variable weights cause systematic gaps between delivery and invoice.
- Traceability requirements differ from one customer to the next.
- One data error blocks a delivery at the dock.

What we take on
Traceability in messages
Batches, dates and identifiers transmitted correctly, from the WMS to the message.
Variable weights
Handling the structural gaps between ordered, delivered and invoiced quantities.
Per-customer requirements
One flow, adapted to each recipient’s own rules.
Blocking checks
Incomplete data is caught before despatch, not at the dock.
What we find next
What we find next: traceability checks done by hand, twice, because nobody dares trust the system.
