having one standard EDI protocol will not fit the real world.

I think so too.
Like Tobias said: EDIFACT is a widely used standard - but with a huge amount of special subsets for different industries.

A lot of companies are changing right now from OFTP to TCP/IP. A customer of our client has been working with OFTP by now. We decided not to do investments in hardware for this old-fashioned way.

If I understand right, the only common standard is the naming of the service-messages.

Therefore a generic module needs a customizable converter to translate the messages to the subset of EDIFACT for the different industries.
