Cin7 Omni EDI Integration

Extend Cin7 Omni's EDI capability across all order formats

Cin7 Omni (Cin7) requires third-party tooling for EDI order processing. OrderSync connects via direct API to sync EDI, PDF, and email orders as Cin7 Omni sales records automatically. Most Cin7 Omni integrations go live in 2 to 4 weeks.

Cin7 Omni is Cin7's premium multichannel inventory management platform, used by product businesses managing complex sales across wholesale, retail, and eCommerce channels. Unlike Cin7 Core (DEAR), Omni includes basic EDI functionality, but it covers standard transactions only and lacks support for the multi-format orders (PDF, email, CSV) that most B2B operations handle alongside EDI.

Frequently Asked Questions

Cin7 Omni's built-in EDI handles basic transactions but doesn't cover retailer-specific compliance rules (Walmart OTIF, Target DPCI, Amazon prep requirements), multi-format orders (PDF, email), or proactive exception handling. OrderSync fills those gaps while syncing clean orders into Cin7.

No. You can disable specific trading partners in Cin7's EDI module and route them through OrderSync instead. The two can run side-by-side during transition.
