EDI is the two way exchange of commercial information chiefly from computer to
computer. Information, or documents are passed back and forth between customers
and suppliers alike to internationally agreed standards. An example, would be
the purchasing process
where quotations, purchase orders, order acknowledgments, shipping notices, invoices
etc would be electronically exchanged. EDI provides the means to improve your
competitiveness, to automate error prone processes (For example the re-keying
of purchase
orders from customers), improving delivery times, significantly reducing costs
and further securing business relationships with
customers and suppliers.
