Electronic Data Interchange is the
computer-to-computer exchange of intercompany business documents.
Instead of relying on paper, telephone, facsimile or mail to exchange
purchase orders, quotes, invoices, and MRPs, EDI trading partners
exchange data directly in an industry standard format, (ANSI
X12 Transaction format).

D.B. Roberts has over 10 years
