EDI via SFTP (Statusdata and Scaninfo)

Introduction

We offer an EDI format feed on a private SFTP folder which is named SCANINFO. The old legacy system STATUSDATA is still used, but no longer activated for new customers. Hourly updates will provide you with encoded lines which you can decode again to ingest and process into your internal systems.

Each file will be accompanied by a semaphore file.
