Re: ISA /GS ID
There's some background about Identifiers and EDI Envelopes at the
Novannet "Resources" page at http://www.novannet.com/resources.html.
Look for the "Let's Talk in Detail About... Identifiers and EDI
Envelopes" on the left sidebar.

Singh,
You must ask your trading partner for their ISA and GS IDs.
To establish your company's IDs, you have several choices. In the US, I
have found that the most popular values are DUNS number and Telephone
number. Trucking companies also use their SCAC code. Your accounts
payable manager will know your DUNS number. Depending on which value you
elect to use, you should chose the corresponding qualifier for the ISA.
01 for DUNS, 12 for telephone, 02 for SCAC. For the full list, reference
your X12 standards manual. If you don't have one of these on CD or hard
copy, you are at a real disadvantage. In my opinion, you should go right
out and get one - in the version that most of your trading partners are
using.
Remember that the ISA ID and the GS ID you select don't have to be the
same. But be aware that there are some trading partners who are
incapable of processing your documents unless they do match. So my
suggestion to save yourself trouble is to make them match.
If you are using a VAN, you must coordinate your choces of identifiers
with them, and of course, you must communicate your choices to your
trading partners. If you are using more than one VAN, you will want
multiple identifiers, because the VANs cross-reference one identifier to
one VAN.
There is a lot to learn with EDI. For me, the Standards manual,
partners' implementation guides, the EDI-L list and paying attention to
what is going on has brought me a long way. Good luck.
