Electronic data interchange (EDI) is a new technology of information communication which can make offices paperless. This study develope and EDI system to communicate informations among companies using computer systems.
The system consists of five modules-document I/O, translation, system management, communication, and additional modules. The database of EDI documentation standards has been constructed by the table-driven method. The Communication module provides three communication modes-RS232C, MODEM, and message handling system (MHS).
The system performance has been improved by the method of data compression and data encryption which prevent the communication delay and illegal users. This EDI system can be used as a front-end, back-end, or stand-alone mode.
