Brad,
That's pretty much what I was looking for. I have one carrier sending me
their invoices via a web form, and it's working great, but a lot of the
complaints are that they have to do 'double entry'... once into their
accounting system, another into the web form. I have received a few other
good options, which I'll be looking at as well. But your suggestion is
similar to one I came across about 4 yrs ago, Message Xpress... I have no
idea if they were a good product, or if anyone I recommended to them used
the product, but the concept was the same as you stated. Do you have a
number/web site for them?
Thanks and keep the suggestions coming!
-Les

Well I don't know but it sounds like what he was looking for was something
more like inXservice. They have a VAN translator service You get a full EDI
translator for $495.00 that includes one trading partner. They charge from
$100.00 to $450.00 per additional trading partner depending on if you need
more than a single standard transaction set i.e. 850, 810 856 977 or any
other standard set. the Hook is you have to use them as the VAN they have a
$75.00 month min vs. 0.32/kc charge but they don't have any mailbox charge
or anything else it might be worth checking out. FYI I am not a rep or an
employee of theirs just passing along a bit of information.

The Mapping client used to be $10k. It is now $15k, I believe. Trading
Partner PC was around $22k when last I checked.
The company called Softshare has a package that looks to be the least
inexpensive at around $10k.
