Re: <MISC> Beware, Wal-Mart takes 1% off your TDS01
After re-reading my message I may have sound slanted towards Wal-Mart. I
apologize
for coming across that way.
In my opinion, Wal-Mart has an enviable grasp on how to make EDI work - It is an
integral part of their success for themselves and the consumer. Regarding EDI
testing
they are one of the easiest to work with. They don't go overboard on use of
EDI
documents, and they use the same set of EDI documents across all departments.
I was merely trying to shed light on the misinterpretation of TDS01. I think
this
misinterpretation is industry and trading partner wide.
