What is EDI?
Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) is the computer-to-computer exchange of business data in standard formats. In EDI, information is organized according to a specified format set by both parties, allowing a "hands-off" computer transaction that requires no human intervention or re-keying on either end. All information contained in an EDI transaction set is, for the most part, the same as on a conventionally printed document.
Organizations have adopted EDI for the same reasons they have embraced much of today's modern technology-enhanced efficiency and increased profits. Benefits of EDI include:
- Reduced cycle time
- Better inventory management
- Increased productivity
- Reduced costs
- Improved accuracy
- Improved business relationships
- Enhanced customer service
- Increased sales
- Minimized paper use and storage
- Increased cash flow
