EDI-Electronic Invoicing

EDI-Electronic Invoicing automatically transfers invoices from your vendor into the RTI 2000 Menu Management system, enabling you to have your food cost as soon as the inventory period ends and saving data entry time.

With EDI (electronic data interchange), you can electronically collect all your invoices from your major vendor and transfer them into Menu Management and Accounts Payable by pressing a key.

Whether you have one store or multiple stores, there are hundreds of line items you must key in and then verify. EDI handles all of this electronically, automatically. With EDI, there is no more waiting for days for your food cost. You get information you need that is accurate (and effortless) to make knowledge-based decisions.

EDI is easy to use! Your distribution center sends invoices electronically to an electronic network (RTInet™). You transfer them from the network via a modem and phone lines to your computer and into RTI 2000 Menu Management and/or Accounts Payable.

These invoices--including item quantities, costs, dates, and other vendor information--are ready to be processed for payment and used to calculate your food cost dollars.

EDI requires an RTI-approved external modem and either RTI 2000 Menu Management or Accounts Payable.
