We write out our raw EDI to a folder, installed EDI Notepad and then provided 
access to the implementation guides and basic EDI training to the users.  This 
seems to work well for us.

While products such as EDI Notepad will make EDI data easiER to read, that does 
not mean users will understand what they are 
reading. Not only are ANSI/EDIFACT data coded to reduce the number of 
characters required to transmit a document making the raw data 
cryptic by design; but different senders may use different codes to mean the 
same thing; or use the same codes to mean different 
things.

Your best and safest bet is to have an EDI professional look over your document 
interpretation requirements, review the application 
requirements with the users, and make a recommendation.
