A couple of (embarrassing) Newbie questions…

 

When I started “doing EDI” I Google’d up a bunch of information; specs,
transaction sets…  Then I wasn’t so good at recording favorites to recall
when I’d actually found something (relying then on just searching it up
again?).

 

One set of “specs” I Google’d up (but no longer have an idea of where I got
them) was something called “Rapid, Inc Guidelines”. In particular I
downloaded docs for Warehouse Shiiping Tranaction sets (94x) and for
Invoices (810). The docs were based on version 4010 and dated 1998. I found
these specs much more useful than the “raw” specs I was seeing from various
vendors or the warehouse… They actually gave business use cases; the example
docs were annotated… Really very useful if you are “dropping into a bunch of
docs you’ve never seen before”…

 

Today I was looking through one of them to scope out a couple of docs that I
will need to be able to talk about with a client… I thought I’d search them
up again, hoping for updates to 5010, corrected examples… I cant find them…

 

Does anyone know who “originated” these docs? Has anyone updated copies? I
know a really odd request, but I see “old copies” of these docs strewn “all
over” the web… Almost as if these are some “core EDI Documents”…

 

Anyone have a clue?

 

Next newbie question…

Where does one go to get the “raw” ANSI X-12 (or other) standards… I also
tried to Google up this one, but the first few pages of search results are
all service providers…

 

I’ll be continuing my search, but I thought it might save me time to throw
the question out into this group…
