Hi Pande,

to add more...

EDI came into when there was a need to exchange data between companies ,etc..

there comes with perticular standards like anscii12 and so...so that no one will say that u fallow my method...

EDI is a technology.

EDI goes with perticular standards like HIPPA,ANSCII 12..

EDI has got point to point connection.

xi came into picture ...when u are using SAP why not SAP product to exchnage data...

XI is a tool

it has got shipped sap Components like CRM,etc.

it is an SAP tool.

Openess and interoporability.

single point of connection.

multiple database updation.

Cheers,

<b> EDI:It is one of the message format it is not a tool it is just one format of message structure.</b>

EDI is a format for exchange of data between parners in a b2b scenario. It is a standard format for exchange of info.

Vendors like SeeBurger Provide EDI adapters that can be used in XI to integrate XI and your EDI subsystems.
