**EDI (electronic data interchange ) -** the electronic trasmission of data between organizations/depatments - Naviance.

**Advantages of EDI** //Save Money -// The cost of paper and paper processing is incredibly high compared to a properly implemented EDI program. //End Repetition -// If your trading partner wants a copy of a document, instead of calling you they simply check their mailbox. //Save Time -// EDI also saves time over paper processing since the transfer of information from computer to computer is automatic. It also increases customer relations as the quick the transfer of business documents and marked decrease in errors allow you to do business faster and more efficient. //Reliability// // - // More reliable means of transporting data/documents. **Disadvantges of EDI** //Too Many Standards -// There are many different standards for sending documents formats using EDI. Standard examples include X12 standard format and the EDIFACT standard format. These standards also change on a yearly bases, you might be using the most updated version while the receiver/sender might be using an older version, and vice versa. //EDI is Expensive -// This expense may be too costly for small schools who have to use EDI in communicating with external groups/companies. This might in turn limit trading partners. This could however also be caused by a digital divide, which is more evident for international schools operating in second/third world countries. //Maintenance// // - // There is a need of maintenance for the data, backing up and keeping it safe. There is no hard copy it is all on a system and they must be backed up. **Libraries**  Guest speaker
