The EDT (Edge Data Transfer) module is responsible for importing and exporting data between the Edge and your Punchmark website. This system is a 2nd generation module of what was once called Edge TPW (third party website). The EDT system is more complex and includes data like customers, wish lists, and transactions, and has the potential to transfer data in two directions.

It is possible to start with single directional EDT and upgrade to bi-directional in the future by paying the difference.
Configuration | Partner | Non-Partner |
Single Directional EDT (1x) | $1,000 | $2,000 +$300 annual service |
Bi-Directional EDT (2x) | $1,250 | $2,500 +$300 annual service |
Virtual Store | +$500 annual service | +$500 annual service |
Upgrade from TPW | $250 | $500 |
Due to their familiarity with our data structure, the price is discounted and maintenance fee waived when using one of our preferred partners.

Both Configurations of Edge EDT are available in the Professional or Advanced plans, or as a separate billable item in the Starter Plan (and Early Adopter service plans). For more information, please visit Punchmark’s pricing page.

How It Works
On initial set up, an agent from Abbott Jewelry Systems logs in to your computer and helps you configure your system to determine what data to include. The first time EDT runs, all chosen data is exported to the website as a full upload of all data. It is then set to run on a schedule (once a day, once an hour, every 15 minutes, etc.) and on each subsequent run, only new or changed data is included. For Bi-Directional integrations, it will also check for pending files that come back from your website. After the first upload, a Punchmark customer success representative will set up a default category structure based on your categories in the Edge. All imports are processed for products, customers, wish lists, repairs, and transactions, if applicable. Once the default options are in place, the Punchmark team will hand it off to you to make any final tweaks.
