We have a ton of experience in EDI across a variety of verticals (manufacturing, order entry, healthcare, etc).
I am not sure what experience you are looking for here. I can tell you that "jumping into" EDI is a daunting process. There are decades and decades of history here, dozens of standards (if you can call many of them even standards) and a bit of voodoo black magic. The good news is that any vendor the size of Walmart already has an EDIT infrastructure, a translator/mapper, a gateway, a broker, etc. I have to assume you are doing RIA development? If done right, (separation of concerns, SBA etc) you should find yourself very insulated from the EDI infrastructure. What is the project? How involved in the back-end EDI infrastructure will you be? As I said, we have a *bunch* of experience with EDI and EAI in general. (I was the lead Product Manager for B2B and EAI at Microsoft, so I know a schooch about EDI myself!) Drop me a line if you need some guidance. -- Dave Wolf Cynergy Systems, Inc.
