Every system needed... really? So if I'm a customer and I don't use EDI,
your telling me that it still works automatically? Don't think so!

There is no retyping on any systems I have worked on for 15 years, EDI posts
directly to every system needed and the process is automatic.

Currently about 90% of all electronic commerce transactions are retyped
in to different systems such Accounting and others. This must be
stopped. XML with 'smart messaging' allows for all corporate systems to
interact with true Enterprise Architecture Interrogations (EAI). This
will vastly increase the speed of information flow within supply
chains.

EDI will be around for along time. But it will changed by new products
and
services that will make it easier and faster. The death of the
Mainframe has prodicted for decades but it has been reborn as a
superserver for smaller computers. By adding-on new products EDI will
be around for years.
