Check list to start EDI in practice
1. Select an EDI-Provider. Company, which is supporting infrastructure (transmitting channels, storage, applications) and integrates data between various applications.
2. Sign the Service-oriented agreement with EDI-Provider. It is not just buying a piece of software, it is more like buying service, which is constantly supported by the EDI-provider.
3. Make sure you have GLN number. This will easily enable your company to exchange electronic documents cross-borders.

4. Give the contacts of your business software application servicing company to the EDI-provider. Business-software has to have the option to import and export data in and out. Then true EDI is possible.
5. Give the contact details of your business (decision-maker) and IT (technical) personnel to the EDI-provider.
6. Figure out, whether and how you manage your Masterdata. Another words, whether you are changing the product information on an everyday basis.
