How is EDI more than technology? What unique control problems may it pose?


EDI represents a unique business arrangement between the buyer and seller in which they agree, in advance, to the terms of their relationship on such items as selling price, quantities, delivery times, payment terms and methods of handling disputes. The terms of agreement are binding. One problem is ensuring that only valid transactions are processed. Another risk is that a non-trading partner will masquerade as a trading partner and access the firm's processing systems.
