Perhaps instead of a 200K threshold, you ought to be looking at X number of PO's per period threshold. As Earl pointed out, you've probably already spent enough time trying to do this to absorb any savings you're going to get from sending one PO a month via EDI instead of paper.

I have a mandate I need to adhere. We need to use EDI for any vender we spend more than 200K with, it is a EDI 820 mandate but if we are going to trade 820's most times we also try and trade PO's except in the case where the 820 is going to their bank.

If you are reselling these licenses and expect a regular volume or need quick turnaround, then possibly. If it's one PO per month, I think you are wasting your time ;-) If they refuse, send ME the PO and I'll sell you the licenses ;-) (After I put add <SALES> tag on the message) Sorry I may not have been clear with my first post. We are going to be purchasing software licenses for Microsoft software. We must issues a PO each month for the software we use. Microsoft has given us a list of companies we can buy the licenses from. Ingram Micro is one of them. Before we pick the company to use I need to confirm that they truly have support for EDI. Lots of time we are told oeYes we support EDI� but there version of EDI is sending us a PDF via e-mail. HP is also on the list of companies Microsoft gave us. We setup an account with them, signed up for their VAN only to find that the part numbers we need to order are in a "different" system that does not support EDI at this time.

Shouldn't they be selling to customers? Have you tried googling? Have you tried explaining to the people at the 800 number that you are the customer and they are the vendor and perhaps they can refer you to a different department, one that is interested in selling whatever it is they sell? Have you mentioned this problem to whoever gave you this number?

We were given 1-800-616-4665 by our sales rep but when we call that number they will not answer any questions without us giving them an account number. We have not setup an account with them because we need to verify their EDI support before we bring them on as a vender. All we get from sales is "Unfortunately without an Ingram account our EDI department cannot assist" I find it a bit nuts.
