Orange Business Services,
certified provider of European Network Exchange (ENX) services to many
companies in France, has announced that their service will shortly be discontinued.
This means that many users will be searching for an alternative solution in
good time to ensure that there is no disruption to their EDI exchanges. The
Odette file transfer protocol OFTP2 offers a cost effective and reliable
alternative solution tailored to the needs of automotive companies of all
sizes.
Preparations for the 23rd Odette International Conference and Exhibition are now underway so make sure that you block 26/27 May 2025 in your calendar for this must-attend event in Bratislava.
The OFTP2 functionality – Partner Details Exchange via XML (PDX XML) – has been developed to simplify the management of partner master data. The feature has already been implemented in several OFTP2 solutions and is currently being deployed in the OFTP2 user community but in the meantime, Odette has developed the PDX XML Generator to help those whose OFTP2 solution does not yet support the feature or those who have not yet upgraded to the latest version.
As we approach the end of another amazing year, with a jam-packed 2024 programme ahead of us, it is fitting to reflect on 2023 and wrap-up in style. What better way to do this than recognising all those who have made our excellent results possible.
The OFTP2 Expert Group constantly reviews the OFTP2
protocol to ensure that it remain at the leading edge of file transfer
technology. The latest enhancement -“Partner Details Exchange using XML“ -
published in version 3 of the OFTP2 Implementation Guideline will bring about significant gains in time and
efficiency.
The OFTP2 protocol is constantly reviewed and updated by the Odette OFTP2 Experts Group, and the majority of OFTP2 solutions on the market have recently been re-tested to ensure, new features have been implemented correctly.
Odette has appointed CEDEX, provider of e-Autohub, the largest Chinese automotive network, as a Registration Authority (RA) in China for the Odette Certification Authority (CA).
