The data can be transferred to and from Supplier Exchange in the XML , CSV , EDIFACT/Odette , X12 , and VDA formats. Supplier Exchange processes these transactions without the requirement of a third party translator.

At least one trading partner must be added for each supplier to communicate using EDIFACT , Odette , X12 or VDA file formats. Additional records can be added for each facility, ship to, and document type (transaction).

To communicate in these formats, the related file format must be selected in the document profile and trading partner details must be specified.
