Overview
Ordering APIs
This option offers a direct system-to-system channel for placing orders. Products are configured on the customer side and delivered in XML format to IDT's ordering API. The XML is read and translated into an IDT order, placed with the shipping/payment details provided in the document. Valuable features of our ordering APls include:
- Allows ordering from a configurable specification, using IDT product information
- Specification includes all information necessary to configure, manufacture, ship, and bill the order
Electronic business documents
In conjunction with our integration and portals capabilities, the following information is also available:
- Confirmation—in cXML format, delivered upon IDT's recognition of sale
- Advance Shipping Notice (ASN)—delivered upon close of shipping manifest, via HTTP, in cXML format only
- Invoices—electronic invoices are submitted daily, one invoice per submission (not batched), in multiple document types/formats and delivery methods
- Custom Reports—available in specified periods (in Microsoft Excel or XML format) delivered via email or HTTP
