In October of last year I asked if anyone was planning to move VAN services, especially as BT EDI*Net have announced the closure of its VAN services on the 24th February 2010.
Did you act or are you still trying to find the time? Time has run out, but there are still plenty of people out there who can help.
If you received the letter from BT EDI*Net, then there are plenty of companies out there that can help you. Inovis is just one of them. And if you’d like to know more about what Inovis offers, you can read up on our VAN services.
If you have already changed, don’t forget to inform your trading community, so that they can advise their own VAN network to change the interconnect details
We are here to help you, whatever your needs.

Last month Freeway Inovis announced the launch of their Advanced Shipping Notes (ASN) Consolidator Portal.
This solution will help suppliers of all sizes meet the electronic ASN requirements of retailers such as B&Q, John Lewis, House of Fraser, Homebase, Sainsburys and Tesco. The retailers are increasingly requiring the use of electronic ASN’s to more accurately track the movement of goods from suppliers, enabling them to forecast when deliveries will be received and optimise stock levels for better warehouse and storage efficiency.
In conjunction with this, Inovis continues to help Tesco to get its thousands of grocery and non-food suppliers up to speed with the electronic trading system it wants them to use.

In my blog in November of last year I asked, “How reliant is your Company on EDI?” I have 2 further questions for you.
What would happen if you were trying to get month end through and your system just stopped?
What about those time critical orders? What would happen if your EDI system couldn’t process them?
This week, one of our TrustedLink iSeries (TLI) support consultants made the comment that she had come across 6 companies in 1 week who had problems after not regularly running a purge.
If you want to avoid that dreaded IBM message: ‘Maximum numbers of objects reached,’ which is an OS/400 restriction, then devote a little time to setting up the concurrent purge now available in TLi V6.3
Gwyn Madsen posted a blog in November last year promoting additional functionality in the latest version of TrustedLink iSeries (TLi) V6.3.
Improved TLi Data and Object Management
- Run 24/7, 365 days a year without interruption as the purge/archive process can now be executed concurrently with normal TLi operations running.
- Communication Session Retention Settings & IFS Purge inclusion
So there are no excuses; run a purge today to stop problems in the future.
