Onboard trading partners faster with Cleo WebEDI
Cleo WebEDI helps suppliers onboard to retailer, marketplace, distributor, and 3PL EDI requirements quickly with a managed portal experience that keeps you in control without forcing your team to become EDI experts.
Start with Cleo WebEDI for fast partner onboarding, then grow into Cleo WebEDI-Integrated for backend connections to QuickBooks, NetSuite, Dynamics 365 Business Central, GlobalShop, shipping systems, and other ERP or operational systems as needs expand.
Use WebEDI as a managed starting point for partner onboarding, then add backend integration when your business is ready.
Start with the partners Cleo already knows — and keep room for new ones
Many suppliers come to Cleo because their trading partners are already part of Cleo's ecosystem. Cleo WebEDI helps you move faster when a connection is already familiar, while still supporting trading partners beyond the existing network when your business needs to expand.
Accelerate known partner onboarding
Use Cleo's experience across retailers, distributors, marketplaces, carriers, suppliers, and logistics providers to simplify the path from mandate to go-live.
Support partners beyond the network
Cleo is not limited to existing partner connections. When a new retailer, customer, marketplace, or 3PL requires EDI, Cleo can help assess and support the right setup path.
Keep onboarding scalable
Start with WebEDI for fast partner compliance, then expand into integrated workflows as your partner count, document volume, and backend requirements grow.
Get EDI-ready for new trading partners without doing it alone
Whether you are onboarding a new retailer, responding to a marketplace mandate, or supporting a 3PL fulfillment workflow, Cleo helps you map requirements, set up documents, test workflows, and stay operational without asking your team to learn the complexity behind EDI.
Support the transaction flow partners commonly require, including purchase orders, invoices, ASNs, acknowledgments, and shipping labels.
Give business users a browser-based workflow while Cleo helps with onboarding, setup, testing, and EDI support behind the scenes.
Prepare for workflows that depend on accurate shipment notices, labels, warehouse activity, carrier activity, and exception visibility.
