EDI (Electronic Data Interchange)

Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) is a digital system that allows businesses to exchange important documents—such as orders, invoices, and shipping notices—automatically and securely over the internet. Instead of using paper or manual entry, EDI standardizes and automates these exchanges, reducing errors and saving time. It's widely used in industries like retail, manufacturing, and logistics to streamline supply chains and improve efficiency by enabling quick, reliable, and paperless communication between trading partners.
