exports and imports product there be one system that can I communicated with
others company by use internet only. Its call EDI or full name ELECTRONIC DATA
INTERCHARGE.

Did you know EDI? EDI means the computer system
from one company can talk to other company system of another company and have digitally
exchange data.
- Important learning about EDI is important for having a productive dialogue with customers that require it.
- While utilizing EDI maybe a result of a mandate by our customer, it can certainly bring significant benefits to our operations.
COMPONENTS :
- EDI software translates information from our accounting system into the EDI format
- EDI mapping allows our accounting system to sync with our customer’s system
- EDI VAN - Transaction Network needed to send and receive transactions.
BENEFITS :
- TIME DELAYS
Delays are caused primarily by two factors.
Paper documents may take days to transport from one location to another. Manual
processing delays are caused by the need to key, file, retrieve, and compare
data.
- ERRORS
Information is keyed multiple times and
documents are transported, stored, and retrieved by people, non-EDI systems
tend to be error prone.
- UNCERTAINTY
Uncertainty exists in two areas .First, paper
transportation and other manual processing delays mean that the time the
document is received is uncertain. Second, , the sender does not even know
whether the transaction has been received at all nor whether the receiver
agrees with what was sent in the transaction.
While automated equipment can help with
some of these processes, most managers will agree that labor costs for document
processing represents a significant proportion of their overhead. In general,
labor-based processes are much more expensive than non-labor-intensive
operations involving computers and telecommunications.
Note said :
#EDI very important to the business environment it will make works more faster and easier.
