EDI (Electronic Data Interchange) helps you realize the efficiencies of computer-to-computer communication. Using FTP (File Transfer Protocol) or a VAN (Value Added Network) you can send and receive information regarding your CN shipments. EDI allows you to manage routine business functions electronically in a totally secure transmission.

All FTP transactions are without charge to our customers.
