Visual Foods also supports many different Data Import/ Export configurations to allow orders, invoices and reports to be processed electronically. The basic premise for Data Import/Export is that two companies agree to exchange data electronically in an agreed-upon file format. The most common file formats include ASCII text, Excel, HTTP and XML.
Sales Orders, Purchase Orders, Invoices and Shipping Notifications are received and sent via a File Transfer Protocol(FTP) between trading partners. Visual Foods will automatically send and/or receive files based on timers that are configured within the program.
