EDI IN INDIA

By: Praveen Vinika Sai Sanghamitra Isha Flavia

WHAT IS EDI?

Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) is simply a set of data definitions that permit business forms, that would have been exchanged using paper in the past, to be exchanged electronically.

Electronic data interchange aims at single point collection of data for use by various agencies participating in a common activity.

EDI STRUCTURE

The basic EDI structure is given below.


Each partner has their own internal software systems. Special EDI adapters have to be implemented which will be able to interface with the internal system as well as communicate with the value added network. The particulars of the message syntax and interaction process are negotiated between partners in advance. Sometimes a dominant partner will impose its standards on smaller partners.
