EDI, EDIFACT & cXML

Learn, build, connect, test, break, diagnose, replay, and continuously regression-test EDI, EDIFACT, cXML, and API-based B2B integrations.

Where this fits

Atlasemoji's B2B program is built around a simple idea: integrating with another company should be something people can learn, practice, test, and understand—not a black box that only a handful of specialists know how to operate. The Atlas B2B Test Network gives developers, integration teams, students, suppliers, retailers, 3PLs, manufacturers, and other trading partners a safe external system where they can work through real B2B integration problems.

Users can create a trading partner, choose X12, UN/EDIFACT, cXML, or JSON/API, configure the documents they exchange, load realistic item and location data, work with partner implementation guidelines, map identifiers and business fields, and inspect one transaction at a time in Document Lab. They can run a successful transaction, deliberately create a bad one, see exactly why it failed, fix the problem, replay it, and preserve that behavior as a repeatable regression test.

The teaching side is intentional. A first-time integration student should not need to arrive already knowing what a Scenario, Suite, Circuit, Xref, PO1 segment, NAD segment, ItemOut element, acknowledgment, or partner implementation guide means. Built-in guidance explains what each part does, why it matters, what information belongs there, and what to do next.

That learning also supports the larger Atlasemoji mission. B2B transactions carry location-rich business information: stores, warehouses, distribution centers, ship-to locations, shipment events, inventory positions, delivery parties, routes, assets, and demand signals. When more people understand how to integrate that data, it becomes much easier to connect B2B systems to DataSynch, Xref, inventory, telemetry, geofencing, routing, and other GIS-aware workflows.

Connections are part of the test, not an afterthought. Depending on the partner and configured Atlas integration path, B2B workflows can use HTTPS/API, webhooks, SFTP, FTP, AS2-related configurations, Google Cloud Application Integration, or manual document exchange. Atlas keeps the connection context alongside the partner, documents, rules, test scenarios, messages, runs, trace, and telemetry.

Good fit for

  • Learning EDI, EDIFACT, and cXML integration
  • Trading-partner onboarding and certification
  • External B2B interoperability testing
  • Partner implementation-guide validation
  • Mapping, Xref, and master-data testing
  • Regression testing after integration changes
  • HTTPS/API, webhook, SFTP, FTP, and AS2-oriented partner workflows
  • EDI purchase orders, acknowledgments, ASNs, invoices, inventory, forecast, and warehouse testing
  • EDIFACT ORDERS, ORDRSP, DESADV, INVOIC, and related message testing
  • cXML OrderRequest, ConfirmationRequest, ShipNoticeRequest, InvoiceDetailRequest, ProductActivityMessage, and Response testing
  • Turning B2B transactions into DataSynch, inventory, telemetry, geofencing, and GIS-aware workflows
Technical drill-down

Move from business context into implementation guidance

Atlas B2B Test Network provides a guided environment for X12, UN/EDIFACT, cXML, and JSON/API interoperability testing. Users can configure Trading Partners, Partner Guidelines, document profiles, connections, Test Data, Mapping & Rules, and Xref; inspect individual transactions in Document Lab; parse, explain, validate, and transform supported representations; create positive and negative Scenarios; group them into Suites; associate reusable partner, connection, and test relationships as Circuits; inspect Messages, Runs, Trace, and integration telemetry; and replay tests after correcting mappings or business rules. Partner Guidelines can retain implementation sources and reviewed partner-specific requirements so validation can distinguish generic standard structure from the way a particular retailer, supplier, 3PL, marketplace, or customer actually implements that standard. Connection configuration can represent HTTPS/API, webhook, SFTP, FTP, AS2-related partner requirements, Application Integration, and manual exchange while keeping configured transport capability distinct from actual executed transport evidence.
