Work retailer EDI and online orders in one application
If you rely on warehouse management software from IDF, you want an EDI platform that makes connections seamless and straightforward, allowing you to maintain information that is accurate and timely.
Lingo from eZCom does that. And more. When Lingo is integrated with BlueBox, you have a powerful system that automates EDI transactions to reduce the errors manual entry can create. You'll exchange data seamlessly without switching back and forth between applications, improving compliance with your Trading Partners and enhancing your most important business relationships.
Integrated EDI is not only important, it's vital as your company expands. When you choose Lingo to run with your BlueBox WMS, it will scale as your business grows.
Our in-house team connects systems using whichever method fits your operation best.
Lingo's RESTful API, which includes webhooks, is the primary data transfer method used for all integrations.

Learn more →With Lingo connected to your WMS, you can stay on top of direct-to-consumer and direct-to-store shipping.

Pick and pack results flow back. BlueBox returns the 945 with cartons, weights, and tracking, so the ASN you owe your retailer builds itself from real warehouse data.
Fewer compliance failures. Validation runs before anything goes out the door, and shipment data comes from the warehouse rather than a spreadsheet — which is where most chargebacks start.
Inventory stays current across channels. On-hand quantities in BlueBox feed back into Lingo so your retailers and online storefronts see availability that matches the shelf.
One system to check, not three. Retailer EDI, online orders, and warehouse traffic all sit in one Lingo account, so you're not reconciling between applications.
These are the transaction sets that move most often between you, BlueBox by IDF, and your retailers — but they're a starting point, not a limit. Lingo supports the full range of EDI documents, and your integration carries whichever ones your trading partners require.
EDI 940
Tells your warehouse what to pick, pack, and ship, and where it's going.
EDI 945
The confirmation of what actually shipped, including cartons and tracking.
EDI 856
Built from the 945 and sent to your retailer ahead of the delivery.
EDI 846
Keeps available stock in the warehouse in sync with your sales channels.
Yes. This connector links your eZCom account to the BlueBox by IDF WMS you already operate. If you're still selecting a warehouse system, we're happy to talk through what makes one straightforward to integrate.
Every connection starts with a discovery phase and technology audit so we understand your order flow before we build. Timelines depend on how many retailers and channels are in scope; your implementation specialist will give you a schedule after that review.
Lingo's RESTful API with webhooks is the primary method we use for integrations. Where a warehouse workflow is better served by EDI warehouse documents such as the 940 and 945, we use those instead — our in-house team picks the method that fits your operation.
That's the point of integrating rather than exporting files by hand. Lingo scales with your volume, so adding retailers or sales channels doesn't mean adding headcount to keep data moving between systems.
We do. Our in-house development team has built connections to a range of 3PL and WMS platforms — see the full list on our integrations page.
