RE: RE: <TECH> Mapping EDIFACT to X12
There are situations where standards are dictated not only by your trading
partner but by government entities. If you import into the US via ship
there is the 24 hour advanced manifest rule which US Customs requires the
use of X12 or their transaction CAMIR. So in this case there is no
interchangeability.

I don't operate at the nitty-gritty EDI level, so pardon my high-level
perspective.
My experience showed that EDIFACT is better suited to international
transactions than X12. I had
worked in the shipping industry, and found, for example, that the
IFTMBF/IFTMBC pair was a richer
transaction than the 300/301 pair. The former handled inland transportation
and multiple
transportation legs better. So, in that business arena, it was difficult to
use EDIFACT and X12
interchangably.
