What is EDI – and what are the benefits?
EDI (Electronic Data Interchange) refers to the electronic exchange of data between business partners via standardised communication paths (e.g. GXS mailbox) and standardised message formats (e.g. ORDERS = order) which have been defined by relevant organisations (e.g. VDA, UN).
The
absence of manual intervention
means that the
error quota is reduced,
the
throughput time is cut,
all the
processing can be fully automated
and
traceability is improved.
Valuable human resources
can be deployed elsewhere.
