John Loveland, of Flying J, Inc., says that his "...company has decided
to begin a large-scale program to push our non-EDI trading partners to
EDI. Many of these companies don't even really know what EDI is."
Dear John:
If your non-EDI trading partners "don't even really know what EDI is,"
there's a good chance they may not appreciate being pushed into using
it. Perhaps they're not ready to automate. Or even if they're
automated, the volume of business they do with you may not justify the
investment in a VAN, a translator and the other overhead of Electronic
Commerce.
Why not just take the path of least resistance? Give them Web forms for
the business documents you want to trade with them! With FORESIGHT's
TradeSite Web-EC solution, you can reach those non-EDI trading partners
by mapping HTML forms to and from EDI or XML messages, with complete
turnaround support. What could be more painless? Eliminate rekeying
from faxes and paper! For more information on TradeSite, please visit
