As the season of annual reviews is just around the corner, I was wondering if 
anyone knows of a good resource that would list EDI-related job titles and 
their descriptions.  Obviously, I know what my job title is and I know what my 
job duties are, but I'm not 100% sure that my job title is appropriate for all 
the duties I am responsible for.  

My thought (crazy hope) is that if I can argue that my job duties warrant a 
more accurate [higher] job description, I might be able to argue a better pay 
rate, too :-)  My current job title is "EDI Coordinator" and I work in an EDI 
department of one (albeit not without some help), in a medium-sized retail 
company.  I handle just about all aspects of the EDI process for my company, 
including any map changes, development projects, trading partner testing, and 
data issue troubleshooting/resolution.  I am about 80% responsible for all 
server administration over our hardware.

I have heard the following job titles used to describe colleagues working in 
this industry, but I'm not sure what the hierarchy is: analyst, coordinator, 
manager, specialist, administrator.  I'm guessing there are also others.  I've 
always felt that a "manager" manages "people" and not "things", so I wouldn't 
consider myself an "EDI Manager".  I also wouldn't feel that I'm an "EDI 
Administrator" until I am 100% responsible for every EDI aspect in my company.  
Of the remaining (and also unknown) job titles, I'm not sure which is "more 
advanced" than the others.

I have checked a few websites for job descriptions, but without being able to 
find one that has all job titles listed, it is difficult to see how they rank 
amongst one another.  Is there an agency or site that would have such 
information?
