What’s changing
eAdaptor Next is WiseTech’s modernised integration platform for CargoWise. It replaces the legacy eAdaptor with:
- OAuth based authentication for stronger security
- REST based messaging in place of the older format
- Improved performance and stability for inbound and outbound messaging
- Support for both synchronous and asynchronous connections
- Compatibility with newer CargoWise features, including Connector and Mapper This shift is part of CargoWise’s broader modernisation, and it addresses limitations that have long been part of the legacy eAdaptor setup.
Why act now
Delaying the migration carries real risk. Every connection between CargoWise and your surrounding systems, upstream and downstream, depends on this integration layer. Leave it too late, and you risk disruption to data flows, added security exposure, and a scramble to migrate under deadline pressure once eAdaptor is switched off. Starting early gives your team room to assess properly, test in a non production environment, and migrate on your own timeline rather than the deadline’s.
How Zinnovate can help
As a certified Platinum WiseTech partner, Zinnovate has hands on experience guiding CargoWise clients through eAdaptor Next migrations. We support the full process, right sizing the solution to your setup and helping you avoid common pitfalls along the way.
- Assessment: Reviewing your current eAdaptor setup, identifying dependencies such as XML formats and authentication methods, and evaluating impacts on workflows, EDI communications, and external systems.
- Planning: Building a tailored migration roadmap, including timelines, non production testing, and bulk updates for EDI Client configurations across your organisation.
- Design: Architecting secure OAuth based authentication and REST interfaces for XML messages, and configuring the platform to take advantage of new multi endpoint support.
- Build support: Supporting new and existing integrations, including EDI Client Details setup in CargoWise, certificate management, and custom development for inbound and outbound processing, all without disrupting your operations.
- Deployment and testing: Rolling out the migration with thorough testing, error handling, and post go live support, so your data keeps flowing smoothly throughout.
