Acquisitions workflows are evolving rapidly, requiring libraries to adapt to new technologies like APIs and EDI integration, transforming ordering and invoicing processes. But how can you effectively set them up and ensure long-term success? This presentation explores configuring API and EDI solutions to streamline ordering and invoicing, covering step-by-step set-up-from defining system requirements to mapping data fields and establishing real-time connections with vendors. Equally important is maintaining these systems post-implementation. We'll discuss ongoing maintenance strategies, including monitoring data accuracy, troubleshooting errors, and updating configurations as vendor systems evolve. Whether you're considering these tools or refining current integrations, this session offers practical advice and lessons learned from collaboration between acquisitions and systems teams to advance efficient, sustainable solutions. Join us as we demystify these tools and advocate for their potential to reduce manual work, improve metadata quality, and enhance efficiency-ultimately transforming workflows.
