EDI Analyst

What is EDI?

EDI stands for Electronic Data Interchange. As an EDI analyst, you manage the systems that exchange data within a company and between the company and other entities (customers). Your duties include customizing and configuring systems that process transactions. Generally, only the largest companies use EDI interfaces; Hudson’s Bay, Costco, Macy’s, Nordstrom’s, etc. So, you will assess the technical needs of the client and create a plan to meet those needs using automation, software, and EDI applications. You then implement the plan, test the systems, and make adjustments if necessary. No coding is required. All the system changes are done in our Enterprise Resource Planning software.
