I'm guessing you work for a large corporation or one that has legal counsel. Get them to earn their pay.

I am looking for some feedback from EDI Notepad users, primarily from ones who would use Inbound EDI HTML-View/Print as a "legal" document. Currently EDI Notepad is placing TP Logo at the top of each HTML-View/Print. It is a default functionality and in some cases is the only way to clearly identify the Trading Partner to the user. Once one of many EDI Notepad users requests particular partner logo added to database - entire EDI Notepad community would have the logo on all documents for that trading partner. To my knowledge we can't turn on and off logo display for specific partner. Question: Are there any legal implications of displaying Trading Partner trademark logo at the top of the documents? Assuming that such documents would not always be used only internally but sometimes - made available back to trading partner? Would I need to contact each of my trading partners and collect written consent for logo usage? And YES, I did contact EDI Notepad vendor, but they did not really have any documentation convincing me that Logo can be used legally with no additional authorization for particular partner. [I know you are reading this guys, please do not take it personally. ] Also, if any of you are aware of any other EDI viewer similar to EDI Notepad - please let me know. Please kindly reply to this post, or email me back at shluft at yahoo dot com Thanks, Ilia. [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] ------------------------------------ ...
