EDI · AS2 · MGR — VAN and market leader in EDI
Electronic EDI document exchange
with our partners
This page covers our AS2 service — but AS2 is only one of the protocols we master. As a VAN (Value Added Network) and an EDI benchmark, we also run OFTP2, FTP/SFTP and traditional VAN to connect your company to its partners.
This endpoint receives and sends EDI documents (PEM/PED/EMB delivery schedules) over the AS2 protocol — with digital signature, encryption and delivery receipt (MDN) point to point with each automaker, no intermediaries.
MGR
Partner (each automaker)
- 01 · 1. Signing
- The document is digitally signed by the sender, guaranteeing authenticity and integrity.
- 02 · 2. Encryption
- It is encrypted with the recipient's certificate — only they can open the content.
- 03 · 3. HTTPS delivery
- The package is transmitted straight to the partner's AS2 endpoint, with no VAN or intermediary.
- 04 · 4. Confirmation (MDN)
- The recipient returns a signed receipt (MDN), confirming the message arrived intact.
How we organize exchanges
Organization (us)
Our side of the exchange: our own certificate, AS2 identifier (AS2 ID) and the sent/received message boxes.
Partner (each automaker)
One record per partner: their endpoint URL, public certificate and the agreed signature/encryption rules.
How the AS2 exchange is rolled out
Certificate exchange
Each side registers its AS2 ID and digital certificate — the basis of authenticity and confidentiality.
Partner configuration
We register the endpoint, the signature/encryption algorithm and the rules agreed with you.
Homologation test
We exchange test messages and validate the MDN before any real document.
Production
Once certification is approved, EDI documents start flowing for real, point to point.
Monitoring
MGR tracks every message and notifies you if anything fails — with nothing for you to install or monitor.
