Mario Kischporski examines the topic of Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) in this essential work, focusing on the opportunities and challenges of its practical application in daily business life. It particularly highlights the importance of structured data exchange, potential pitfalls, and relevant practical considerations, all presented in a clear, concise, and understandable manner. This aims to help the reader gain a solid overview and apply the potentials of digitalization concretely and pragmatically in everyday practice. There is virtually no (introductory) specialized literature on the topic of EDI. This essential work aims to fill that gap.
