What is Gliks EDI?

Gliks EDI is an electronic data interchange framework that automates apparel supply chain transactions between Gliks and its suppliers. It integrates purchase orders, ship notices, and invoices directly into supplier ERP, PLM, and e-commerce systems to ensure VAN-based document compliance, accurate ASN alignment, and synchronized barcode label and packing slip data.

Operational Focus

Apparel label-to-ASN compliance focus

  • Validate X12 purchase orders, ship notices, and invoices against Gliks specifications

  • Sync ASN line items, carton counts, and routing details with ERP order data

  • Maintain stable VAN connectivity for inbound and outbound document exchange

Invoices deviating from purchase order prices, quantities, or ship dates delay payment and create reconciliation work.
