Hi Doug,
Sorry for the long delay, I missed this when it came through. We had to start doing business with a big customer but didn't have EDI working in Vantage. I went to CovalentWorks.com and they set me up quickly and easily. And they're cheap! I can't say enough nice things about them.
They provide a web interface where you can see your incoming orders, send Advance Ship Notices (ASN)'s and invoices. You just manually enter the data from the screen into Vantage for the orders, the ASN's and Invoices are created from the data already on the website. You just add tracking numbers and a few other bits.
If your transaction volume is going to be too high to do manual entry, you'll need to look at a different solution. For small volumes, covelantworks.com has to be the most cost-effective thing possible.
Hope that helps.
Kurt
