Order electronically from non-GHX suppliers through MetaTrade
If some of the suppliers you order from are unable to receive electronic orders, you probably are relying on phone, e-mail and fax orders, which leads to inefficient process that reduces the ability to maximize the benefits of electronic trading.
MetaTrade enables your organization to transmit electronic orders to suppliers who are otherwise unable to process EDI transactions. With MetaTrade, your organization can eliminate fax server costs, license fees, long distance fees, up-time issues and maintenance costs.
MetaTrade also provides a Web site where suppliers can create electronic purchase order acknowledgments against your MetaTrade purchase orders. The Purchase order acknowledgement data is reflected on My Exchange and can be routed to your MMIS. When paired with Contract Center, your organization can validate contract pricing even on orders that are converted to fax and e-mail.
