WHAT IS EDI? IT SOUNDS SIMPLE…

EDI (Electronic Data Interchange) is defined as the structured transmission of data betweenorganizations by electronic means. It is used to transfer electronic business documents suchas Purchase Orders, Invoices, Advance Shipping Notices (ASNs), and many more from onecomputer system to another, i.e. from one trading partner to another trading partner.

LET’S START AT THE BASICS

EDI is not an out of the box solution.

Whether your organization is implementing EDI on your own terms to introduce best business practice or you are implementing EDI to meet a Trading Partners requirement's, the following must be considered:

• EDI Standards (X12, EDIFACT, XML….)• EDI Communication Protocols (VAN, AS2, FTP…)• Integration with NetSuite Protocols

.


.

EDI STANDARDS

ANSI X12• Developed by American

National Standards Institute (ANSI) in 1979

• Most popular EDI transaction set in North America

• Transaction sets given numeric values, e.g. PO = 850, Invoice = 810 etc.

• Multiple standards within X12, 4010, 4030, 5010 etc.

EDIFACT• Developed by the United

Nations (UN) in 1986

• Most popular EDI transaction set outside of N. America. Mostly used in Europe &Far East

• Transaction sets given names.PO = ORDERS, Invoice = INVOIC, etc.

• Multiple standards within EDIFACT. Most popular current standard is D96A

Tradacoms• Developed by the United

Kingdom Retail Sector in 1982

• Had been most popular EDI Transaction Set in UK but is now being over taken by EDIFACT

• Still used today by UK retailers but is slowly being phased out and replaced by EDIFACT subset Eancom

ASN & GS1-128 LABELS

GS1-128 labels are an outer label affixed to each carton and/orpallet and provide information about a particular shipment.This label will alert the trading partner about shipmentinformation such as who the vendor / supplier is, cartoncontent, store ship to location, etc., and is a mix of bothhuman readable as well as scan able information.

The GS1-128 label on every carton is scanned at its destinationlocation (e.g. trading partner central warehouse) andinformation usually is tied to an Advance Ship Notice (ASN)that has already been transmitted via EDI to the tradingpartner from the supplier.
