The InforIBMiUsers group brings together the people who run manufacturing and distribution on Infor XA, LX, and System21. It is a community built on shared experience, real-world problem solving, and a deep respect for the IBM i platform that has powered these businesses for decades. The systems are dependable, secure, and built to run the business. But the world around them has changed. Trading partners want faster turnarounds, tighter compliance, and more visibility, and the pressure to keep up has only grown. This is where a managed EDI partner becomes one of the most valuable resources a member of this community can add. Not a tool, not a project, a true partner that lives inside your supply chain workflow every day.
A managed EDI service takes the burden off your internal team. Instead of chasing maps, troubleshooting failed transactions, or scrambling when a customer rolls out a new requirement, you have a team that owns it from start to finish. Mapping, onboarding, monitoring, exception handling, compliance updates, all of it handled. For XA, LX, and System21 users, this matters even more, because EDI in these environments has its own personality. It rewards experience. The right partner already knows the platform, knows the data, and knows how to keep things moving without disrupting what is already working well.
The result is simple. Faster onboarding, fewer errors, cleaner data, and a supply chain that runs without the daily firefights. Your team gets to focus on the work that grows the business, and your trading partners get the consistency they expect. That is the real promise of managed EDI, not just automation, but confidence. The UniLink Group has spent years working alongside the InforIBMiUsers community helping manufacturers and distributors get there, and we are proud to keep building on that work with you.
If you are weighing what managed EDI could look like for your organization, we would love to talk it through with you. Reach out anytime at sales@unilinkgroup.com or visit www.unilinkgroup.com.
Truly, The UniLink Group
