The questions EDI buyers actually ask.

Yes — Comparatio supports cXML on both sides: supplier-side and customer-side. Whether you receive orders from a procurement system or issue them to your own vendors, the same platform handles the format.

OFTP2 is common with European automotive partners. We don’t run OFTP2 natively — we connect to OFTP2 partners through a VAN-to-VAN interconnect, or move them onto AS2/SFTP where they support it. Either way, we can onboard an OFTP2 partner without you standing up OFTP2 infrastructure yourself. Comparatio runs active European EDIFACT partners in production today, including Bosch, Schneider Electric, and Webasto.

Yes, and these run in production today: 15+ dedicated Ariba integrations (Bridgestone, CVS, Halliburton, and Boeing among them), a dedicated Oracle Business Network integration on TLS 1.3, and SAP IDOC processing for SAP-side flows.

Yes — two of your own P21 companies can trade with each other over standard EDI, the same way they would with an outside trading partner. A distributor running two P21 companies is the reference for exactly this setup.

No. Comparatio is version-flexible across X12 releases — trading partners on older versions like 3010 and 3020 run alongside partners on 4010 and 4030, on the same platform.

AI Document Intake extracts structured data from PDFs with no per-vendor templates — vendor invoices, order confirmations (855), ASNs (856), and sales orders (850). An AI classifier identifies each document type, anything ambiguous goes to a "Needs Review" queue instead of through unchecked, and multi-invoice splitting and credit-memo detection are automatic. It’s in production with active customers.

Yes — but not by re-transmitting the broken file. Comparatio soft-deletes the failed transaction and rebuilds it from your current ERP data, so what goes back out reflects reality, not the original error.

Every mapping change and new trading partner is proven against a dedicated P21 test/play environment with safeguards before anything touches production — testing runs on your real data shapes without touching your real data.

An automated framework handles it: trading-partner setup, sample data deployment, and migration testing, at a typical pace of 2–4 weeks per partner. 60+ trading partners are actively migrating today ahead of the December 2026 shutdown.
