EDI (Electronic Data Interchange)Why Parker?
Getting Started With EDI
If you are new to EDI:
Although we cannot provide EDI advice and counsel
that is specifically tailored to your company, we can
offer you the following limited assistance in starting an
EDI program:
1. An explanation of EDI
2. An explanation of the transactions
3. A discussion on choosing a third-party network
4. A discussion on quantifying objectives and
determining what to expect from EDI
If you have an active program:
If you have an established EDI program, there is very
little preparation needed to begin trading with us once
you have completed the Trading Partnership Agree-
ment.
1. Advise us of your interest in becoming a trading
partner and tell us which Parker divisions you
wish to exchange information with.
2. Work with us to develop an implementation
schedule.
3. Mutually define the functional and technical
parameters under which we will trade, including
your third-party network subscription.
4. Participate in a pilot program, including testing in
a parallel transaction trading environment.
5. Upon completion of the EDI implementation
process, when both partners are confident in
their transaction trading capability, shut off the
paper process.
