DOCUMENT ENTRY AUTOMATION FOR AS/400 (IBM i)
- Documents, any source
- Read and matched
- Typed into AS/400 (IBM i)
Stop retyping invoices, claims and orders into AS/400 (IBM i)
LegacyBridge reads incoming documents, checks the information, fills the correct AS/400 (IBM i) screens and waits for your team to approve the transaction.
Test it with one real document, using your own data, your own system and your own workflow.
No ERP replacement. No changes to your core AS/400 (IBM i) application. No automatic submission during the controlled proof.
Keep the system. Remove the typing.

“I had a clear idea of what this needed to be, and I got to build it. Seeing it actually take off — and knowing it's helping so many customers every day — that's the best part of the job.”
Test it without giving up control
Your data. Your system. Your approval.
Start with one real invoice, claim, order or work document.
LegacyBridge prepares the AS/400 (IBM i) transaction and stops before submission. Your employee checks every field and decides whether to approve it.
There is no forced switch from the old process to the new one. Your current process keeps running throughout the test.
Nothing is submitted without your approval.
Your IBM i system is not the problem
The manual work around it is
Your IBM i system may run the business reliably. But the information arriving around it usually comes through modern channels:
Somebody still has to do the typing
Somebody still has to open the document, find the right IBM i screen, type every field, submit the transaction and check the result.
This creates slow queues, typing mistakes, rework and repetitive work for employees who could be doing something more useful.
LegacyBridge removes the manual typing
LegacyBridge removes the manual typing while keeping your existing IBM i system, screens and business rules in place.
Who LegacyBridge Is For
LegacyBridge is for businesses where AS/400 (IBM i), also known as AS400 or iSeries, remains a core system and employees still enter information into it by hand.
LegacyBridge is likely a good fit when:
- Your team regularly receives invoices, orders, claims, work orders or shipping documents.
- Employees copy information from documents into AS/400 (IBM i) screens.
- Processing slows down when document volume increases.
- Your AS/400 (IBM i) application works, but connecting it to modern document sources is difficult.
- Building new APIs or changing RPG or COBOL code would be costly or risky.
- You do not want to create an internal automation department.
- You want to prove the result with one workflow before committing to anything larger.
- You need human review before records are created or changed.
- Your security team needs clear control over access, data and approvals.
- You need a partner used to working with large and security-sensitive organizations.

What LegacyBridge does
From incoming document to completed AS/400 (IBM i) entry
Seven steps. Your screens, your business rules, your approval.
- Step 1The document arrivesThrough email, SFTP, cloud storage, an API or another agreed source.
- Step 2LegacyBridge reads the informationCustomer and supplier numbers, invoice and order numbers, product codes, quantities, prices, dates, tax codes, claim and policy numbers, shipping references and account information.
- Step 3The data is checkedMissing information, incorrect formats, unexpected values and your other business rules.
- Step 4The correct AS/400 (IBM i) screens openThe same menu path and screen sequence an employee would follow.
- Step 5The fields are preparedThe information is placed into the required AS/400 (IBM i) fields.
- Step 6A person can review the transactionYour employee compares the prepared transaction with the original document and decides whether to approve it.
- Step 7The result is recordedWhat was read, what was entered, what was flagged and who approved the transaction.
NOT A PREPARED SALES DEMO
Controlled Proof With Your Real Data
A controlled proof using your real process
Most software demos use sample data and a process prepared by the seller.
They show that the product can work in theory.
LegacyBridge can be tested with:
- One of your real documents
- Your actual AS/400 (IBM i) screens
- Your existing business rules
- Your approved access setup
- Your normal employee review process
LegacyBridge reads the document, prepares the transaction and waits for human approval before anything is submitted.
You see exactly what it would do before allowing it to do it.
One document. One AS/400 (IBM i) workflow. Every action reviewed by a person.
Why the Proof Is Low Risk
See it work before giving it control
No automatic final submission
During the controlled proof, LegacyBridge can stop before the final AS/400 (IBM i) action. A person checks the document, extracted information and prepared fields before approving the transaction.
No forced cutover
There is no moment where the old process is switched off and the new one suddenly takes over. Your existing process remains available throughout the test. You can test LegacyBridge on one selected transaction while the rest of the team continues working normally.
No changes to the core application
LegacyBridge works with your existing AS/400 (IBM i) screens. The proof does not require changes to your RPG or COBOL application.
Start with one document
You do not need to provide a large dataset or open a full department to automation. Start with one invoice, one claim, one order or one work document.
Use your real business rules
The proof can follow the same checks, screen sequence and approval rules that your employees use today.
Keep a person in control
Every transaction can require human confirmation. LegacyBridge does not have to be allowed to complete work independently during the test.
Work within an approved security setup
Your technical and security teams can agree on the environment, access rights, permissions and data-handling rules before the proof begins.
Stop at any point
Testing one process does not commit you to a wider rollout. The proof exists to answer one practical question: Can LegacyBridge complete this real process correctly and safely?
Do not imagine the result
A Real Proof Compared With a Normal Demo
Check the real result yourself
Typical software demo
- Uses prepared sample data
- Shows a generic process
- Runs in a prepared demonstration environment
- Usually shows only the successful path
- Asks you to imagine how it would work
- May complete actions automatically
- Requires trust in a presentation
- Gives limited visibility into data controls
LegacyBridge controlled proof
- Uses one of your real documents
- Follows your actual AS/400 (IBM i) workflow
- Works within an environment and access setup approved by your team
- Shows unclear fields, validation and exceptions
- Lets your employee check the actual result
- Can stop before the final submission
- Gives you evidence from your own process
- Uses agreed access, permissions and approval rules
Business Results
Remove repetitive work without replacing the system
Remove repetitive re-typing
LegacyBridge reads the document and prepares the AS/400 (IBM i) fields the same way an employee would — without replacing the system that already works.
Faster processing
Documents can be prepared as soon as they arrive instead of waiting in somebody's inbox.
Fewer typing mistakes
Structured checks catch incorrect values, missing fields and avoidable rework before anything is entered.
Easier handling of busy periods
More documents can be processed without immediately hiring additional data-entry staff.
Work can continue outside office hours
Routine documents can be prepared while the rest of the team is away.
Employees focus on exceptions
Experienced staff spend their time handling unusual cases, helping customers and making decisions instead of copying fields.
No forced system replacement
You get automation without turning it into a multi-year AS/400 (IBM i) replacement project.
A gradual path to automation
Begin with human approval for every transaction. Later, automate only the simple, high-confidence cases while keeping human review for exceptions.
Clear responsibility and quality controls
LegacyBridge is backed by an ISO 9001-certified quality management system, with defined processes for delivery, review and ongoing support.
Why Companies Choose LegacyBridge
Not a platform to build on — a product for one clearly defined business problem.
One product for the whole job
Made specifically for AS/400 (IBM i) document entry. LegacyBridge is designed around AS/400 (IBM i) screens, menu structures, field entry and the way these business applications behave.
Reads the document and completes the entry
It does not stop after turning a PDF into structured data. It continues through the AS/400 (IBM i) workflow and prepares the actual transaction.
Your core system stays in place
There is no need to replace your ERP, install a new business system or rewrite the underlying application.
Human approval is available from the first transaction
LegacyBridge can prepare the work while your employee remains the final decision-maker.
Unclear cases do not become silent errors
Documents with missing, unclear or unexpected information can be sent for review.
You can start with one process
There is no need to approve a company-wide automation program before seeing whether it works.
Every action can be reviewed
You can see what LegacyBridge read, entered, flagged and prepared.
Security is part of the setup
The company behind LegacyBridge is certified for information security and cloud security under ISO/IEC 27001 and ISO/IEC 27017.
You buy the result
LegacyBridge is built to complete a specific business process, not to give your team a collection of automation tools that they must build and maintain themselves.
