I know I shouldn't do this but what the hay.
What Xml does is this: Intuit can adopt it.
That means the next time a quick books or quicken upgrade comes out the Xml
is there standard- set. No this does not mean Wal*Mart is going to adopt the
Intuit set of guides but now 100,000 of quick books and quicken user's can
trade documents easly with Pre-defined invoices and PO's.
That's Xml's future- Not in the world of Wal*Mart Sears COSTCO GM and other
fortune 1500 co. Who need and demand and get more flexibility. But in that
print shop with 20 guys sending invoices to the real estate guy with five
guys and the telephone installer and on an on.

It might be helpful to approach this from the point of view of the small
business owner, the printer with 20 employees, and a computer sitting in the
corner running an accounting package, a browser and home-grown Excel
spreadsheet(s) recording jobs and inventory.
Take this person to ebXML. Will they have to replace their accounting
software, which represents a significant investment in training and
licenses? Will this provide just a means to get orders and send invoices?
Will the business owner have to turn to a external programmer each time they
want to add a trading partner?
