UN EDIFACT paperless business data

Electronic Data Interchange refers to electronic, computer-based methods for exchanging messages. Westaflex has highlighted the importance of EDI in numerous publications, and advocates the spread of this technology to small and medium-sized enterprises. We would like to remind the public that electronic processes from our Internet-influenced everyday life have become indispensable and bring with them indispensable benefits for each one of us and, of course, for the entire economy. Such savings and benefits can work in both directions of the supply chain. The cross-company electronic linkage of EDP systems includes the predecessors and successors in the chain. We learn what trade needs are and our suppliers know what our needs are. Orders are then no longer our fault, but a debt of the suppliers. This could work something like this: As soon as our stock falls below our specified threshold for aluminum strip, this is signaled to all potential suppliers of aluminum strip, including all product specifications as well as bandwidths for delivery quantity and delivery time. With this information, all competitors have all the information they need to make us an offer, and we select the best one.

For communication with the customers, therefore, Westaflex above all also has a uniform electronic solution for order processing. Here, the group relies on electronic data interchange (EDI). Above all, the RWTH Aachen myOpenFactory standard is an easy way to profitable savings in order processing, especially for SMEs. Because the exchange via pdf or Excel files belong in our eyes long ago "the stone time". Automatic entry of all relevant data eliminates manual entry for employees - saving time and preventing transmission errors. As an advocate of electronic order processing, the Westaflex Group is convinced that EDI is lucrative even for smaller order quantities - both for its own company and for the customer.

The EDI World Day on 12th November recalls topics or issues of international significance. Since the first World Day in 1947, the United Nations has given 70 official world days. Meanwhile, other organizations such as churches call out memorial days.

Formalized data is data that specifies the order and format of specific information. As an EDI message, therefore, in principle, everything can be sent, which has form character, so for example, invoices, orders, offers, delivery schedules or forwarding orders. EDI is not a message but a news grammar. EDI applications exist in principle in every industry. Today, when banks communicate across borders with SWIFT SEPA, EDI is behind it. In many things, which today works almost as if by magic, it is not Excel but a structured message, namely EDI. The language is different in every industry, for the automotive industry differently than for the stock trading or the sanitary industry. But the underlying grammar, the lowest common denominator, is always the same. Everyone is internationally compatible with the worldwide standardized EDI procedure of the World Trade Organization UNO. No matter if in administrative, constructive or logistic data transfer. EDIFACT is accepted in every national language of the world. All financial and goods flows can be accompanied simultaneously by EDI real-time information.
