RE: EDI Translator wanted

[Lurton Keel <Lurton.Keel@xxxxxxxx>]

OK, I'll throw my $.02 in.
A friend of mine has a neighbor that makes specialty tools for K-Mart (or
Wal-Mart).  A couple of years ago K-Mart informed him he had to do EDI.  Now
he only does about $40,000 gross business a year so he couldn't really
afford to do EDI.  Luckily, for him, his CPA knew a firm that did EDI
translation as a service.  So, now he sends/receives Excel spreadsheets to
this service.  This might be an option for a low cost solution.
My experience with EDI was back in the automotive industry.  We used Future
3 for EDI with known trading partners (Nissan, Ford, Isuzu, etc), but we had
to use Premenos to create EDI translation and applications for unknown
(second tier) suppliers.
