Subject: Re: [U2] EDI Question...
We are using custom software that is integrated to our current order
processing. Luckily we are only doing 850/855 and 810 at the moment.
And I'm sure 856 in the future.....
Where it's getting difficult (at the expense of expense) - is doing direct
ftp with partners to bypass the VANs and
The IMO absolutely outrageous transmissions costs.
So we are doing a combination of XML with our VAN, and edi with our direct
partners - the XML side doesn't need 997's
Whereas the edi side does.
What our system does is converts the XML -> edi , then converts the edi to
an internal multivalued format
Our order entry, and billing is based off that internal format. Then when
we need to send out a document
The internal format is converted back to either edi or xml and then FTP'd
to each of the appropriate servers.
It's annoying in every time we gain a new partner, the software needs to
be tweeked to each of their uniqueness
Within their document requirements.
As standards go, EDI is the most non standardized standard I have seen.

EDI brings up a whole can of worms for me in the new year.
We currently use softshare as our van, I would really like to do EDI in
house or find something more affordable.
Does anyone have any suggestions.
Thank You
