Is is too early to drop the 'real-time EDI' bomb?

The practice of trading partners upgrading to a newer version (Kudo's for
upgrading) and passing the buck to their trading partners (that's me) to pay
for testing at the newer version.... usually to the tune of $350.00...

that is my biggest pet peeve...

"EDI standards don't work. You always have to change programs anyway."
We've added many trading partners with no code changes, yet I still hear
this. Puts me on a slow burn.

How about some Wednesday venting... (Can you guess what touched this
off?)

My least favorite references to EDI projects:

1. "It's not rocket science/brain surgery."

Actually, the claim that it is not brain surgery does not incite; but
for some reason, stating the obvious about EDI and rocket science tends
to make my eye twitch. It's not rocket science?? Gee, I never made the
connection.

2. "It's just a gloried fax."

Hallelujah and AMEN! Whatever, the customer wants an 856/ASN yesterday!


Any others out there? I feel better already...
