in EDI format


Explanation:
EDI, Electronic Data Interchange

Das EDI-Format wird seit den 80er Jahren für den elektronischen Austausch von Geschäftsdaten wie Angebote, Aufträge, Bestellungen und Rechnungen verwendet. Für die einzelnen Einsatzgebiete wurden spezielle Datenelemente und Strukturen (Nachrichten) entworfen. EDI bedarf spezieller Software und Übertragungswege, die in der Regel mit hohen Investitionen verbunden sind. Es existieren Übersetzungsfunktionen von EDI zu XML (WebEDI). Von EDI existieren verschiedene Ausprägungen wie EDI/FACT oder ANSI-X12.
