Parse, map, validate, and automate EDI transactions across all trading partners and systems without the specialist developers or expensive middleware.
Why Astera EDIConnect?
Faster transactions. Lower costs. Full compliance. EDIConnect replaces manual workflows, VAN dependencies, and specialist overhead with a single automated platform your operations team can run.
Build, test, and deploy EDI workflows using a drag-and-drop visual interface. Business analysts and operations teams manage the full process end to end without developer dependence or specialized EDI expertise.
Bring EDI in-house. EDIConnect replaces expensive Value-Added Networks and third-party vendor arrangements with direct connectivity over AS2, FTP, SFTP, and APIs. Transparent licensing with no per-transaction or volume-based charges.
Automate validation for ANSI X12, EDIFACT, and HL7 standards and custom partner-specific rules. Catch errors before submission to reduce rejection rates and improve reimbursements and cash flows.
EDI transactions that require hours of manual handling run in minutes. Workflows execute automatically on file arrival or schedule, with alerts when intervention is needed.
Build detailed partner profiles and configure outbound transaction maps and validation settings per partner. New partners go live in days, not weeks.
EDIConnect sits within Astera's broader platform alongside ETL, data warehousing, and unstructured data management. EDI transaction data flows directly into databases, BI tools, and ERP systems without additional tooling.
EDI mapping traditionally requires specialist knowledge. EDIConnect removes that dependency. The visual, drag-and-drop interface lets operations and data teams map EDI messages to backend systems and back without writing code or scripting transformations.
Every stage of the pipeline is configurable in the same environment:
Empower your operations and data teams to work independently without specialist EDI knowledge.
EDIConnect handles both directions of the EDI pipeline. Inbound files are parsed, validated, and processed. Outbound messages are built to specification and transmitted to trading partners.
Standards support is comprehensive and validation is applied before data moves:
Catch errors at the validation stage — not after rejection.
Each trading partner has unique communication requirements, format expectations, and compliance obligations. EDIConnect maintains dedicated profiles per partner, centralizing configuration and securing all communication.
Partner management is handled within the same platform as mapping and processing:
Configure once — apply across all transactions with that partner.
Manual EDI processing requires staff to move files, check for errors, send acknowledgments, and follow up on failed transmissions. EDIConnect automates the full communication pipeline — from file ingestion through acknowledgment — without manual steps between stages.
Automation operates at the workflow level:
Eliminate manual steps from file ingestion through acknowledgment.
EDI transactions do not exist in isolation. They connect to ERP systems, databases, data warehouses, and BI tools. EDIConnect is part of Astera's unified platform, which means processed EDI data moves directly into downstream systems without additional integration work.
The broader platform handles the full data lifecycle:
No separate middleware required — EDI data flows directly into your downstream systems.
Real Results from Real Teams.
“Compared to Astera, other products looked as complex as a spider web. On top of that, you get the ability to automate the processing of files. So you set it up once and if any files comes in, the product automatically pulls it, corrects it, and creates a new, error-free file.”

“The ability to allow non-developer staff to set up the workflows and manage the whole process from end to end was the most important goal that we achieved. The support team has been valuable to provide suggestions and evaluate possibly efficiencies we can take advantage of.”

Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about EDIConnect and how it transforms your data extraction workflow.
EDI (Electronic Data Interchange) is the structured, electronic exchange of business documents like purchase orders, invoices, claims, shipping notices between organizations using standardized formats. Those formats (ANSI X12, EDIFACT, HL7) have strict structure and compliance requirements. Without purpose-built software, organizations rely on manual handling, custom code, or expensive third-party services to meet those requirements. EDIConnect automates the full process from parsing, mapping, validation, translation, to transmission, without code or specialist expertise.
No. EDIConnect uses a no-code, drag-and-drop interface that operations and data teams use directly. US-Rx Care manages 1,000+ monthly EDI workflows end to end with non-developer staff. IT involvement is not required to build, deploy, or maintain EDI workflows.
EDIConnect supports ANSI X12, EDIFACT, and HL7 standards with built-in transaction sets for healthcare, retail, financial, logistics, and government sectors. Custom transaction sets can be created to meet partner-specific requirements. Validation rules apply at the industry standard level and can be customized per trading partner.
Yes. EDIConnect communicates directly with trading partners over AS2, FTP, SFTP, and APIs, eliminating the need for VAN intermediaries. This removes per-transaction and volume-based VAN fees and reduces dependency on third-party infrastructure. Pricing is transparent licensing with no hidden or volume charges.
EDIConnect integrates with relational databases including SQL Server, Oracle, MySQL, PostgreSQL, Snowflake, Redshift, and SAP HANA, as well as ERP and CRM systems including SAP, Dynamics CRM, and Salesforce, BI tools, and APIs.
