What is Tickstar EDIFACT Webservices?

It’s a free-to-use¹, public webservice that enables transformation from EDIFACT to XML and vice versa. The service is delivered over the internet as a cloud service and can be used by anyone that needs to transform EDIFACT to/from XML without having to invest in locally managed tranformation/conversion tools.

EDIFACT is well spread and supports many Business-to-Business processes, such as the order and invoicing process with trading partners as well as processes for logistics and transportation.

The XML that Tickstar EDIFACT Webservices generate is an ”EDIFACT-ish” XML. The EDIFACTs generated are according to Unece’s specifications.

¹D.96A and D.97A are offered at no cost and without support. Hence, it’s delivered with no guarantees.

Which EDIFACT message types and versions are supported?

Here are the D.93A to D99.B and D.00A to D08.B supported message types and versions. If you need other EDIFACT message types, notify us and we’ll help you promptly.

Can we use the service at no cost?

Yes, as long as you use the schemas and versions¹ offered.

If you require custom transformations – others than the ones supported (se above) – you might consider the cloud service Tickstar Nova or Tickstar Integration Platform.

How do we know that the service really works?

We’ve been doing this for 10 years with satisfied customers.

But what happens if something goes wrong?

We’ve done everything to make this service as secure, reliable and usable as possible. However, please note that we do not guarantee anything in the free version.¹

If you plan to use the webservice in a business critical process or want any of the following; require a certain service level (SLA), want to be able to talk to our support engineers, get necessary expertise help, monitor transactions and be able to Track & Trace in order to hunt down errors (which in most cases are caused by bad data – as you already know) you might consider the add-on services we offer for Tickstar EDIFACT Webservices.
